So power, a mindboggling complex concept with hundreds of meanings. But what is it? Can we touch it? Will it run out?.... So power, with cars its horsepower.... With electronics, is kilowatts.... With money, its quantity.... With people, its strength and influence.....

Everything has power, from a Korean Nuclear weapon to a small banana. For example, both a small banana and a nuclear bomb have potential killing power.

Power has many concepts, but depending on the subject involve, its definition is variable.

The ability to influence somebody to do something that he/she would not have done normally is what we know as power

Authority

Influence

Democracy

Mandate!?

Case Study?So a power case study...

Power in the middle east, where the worlds supply of oil is extracted from each and every day involves power on a huge scale. The oil we use, in plastics, fuels and manufacturing is so relied upon that if the supply was stopped, the earth could easily just stop spinning (theoretically). Therefore the worldwide customer base pays the price demanded for oil, if prices are purposely set to high however, wars start and worldwide outrage begins. Therefore power in the oil market is kept fair, consumers have power over the price to an extent, and so do the suppliers.

Power is controlled.... Whether its governed or limited like car engines and power tools. Or regulated by government and authority.

All in all, controls are to protect others from dangers and to ensure everyone has the right to safety, fairness and a sense of security. Not only this, but control is needed to ensure everyone can live together in some sort of harmony... But at the end of all this, control, limits, governors, authority....

Its all designed to protect us... From ourselves

Control....
