The Power of Power

2013
Forced into a subtle but significant rethink, the connection between properties and powers seemed a crucial issue. Sydney Shoemaker argued that properties were clusters of conditional causal powers: conditional in the sense that they could do things when suitably partnered with other powers.

The Power of Medicine, the Power of Ethics

Journal of Medicine and Philosophy, 1987
Foucault's genealogies and archeologies provide occasions in which one may come to know the powers, accidents, and influences that have structured a particular knowledge or discipline. The Birth of the Clinic shows the development of modern medicine in a process by which rational inference and emphasis on the history of a disease are replaced by ...

The Power of Power

2017
Power is a major explanatory concept in the study of social choice. It is used in studies of relations among nations, of community decision making, of business behavior, and of small-group discussion. In order to explore the power of power in empirical theories of social choice, this chapter proposes to do two things: First, it identifies three ...

Reactive power and power factor

Electrical Engineering, 1933
GENERAL definitions exist for potential, current, and active and reactive power, that are independent of wave form and of circuit conditions. In order to use these quantities in circuit analysis when there are harmonics present, it is necessary to know their individual harmonic components.

On powers in powerful p-groups

Journal of Group Theory, 2007
Given a finite \(p\)-group \(G\) and a nonnegative integer \(k\), let \(\Omega_k(G)=\langle x\in G\mid o(x)\leq p^k\rangle\) and \(\Omega_{\{k\}}(G)=\{x\in G\mid o(x)\leq p^k\}\), \(\mho_k(G)=\langle x^{p^k}\mid x\in G\rangle\). If \(G\) is regular, then \(\Omega_{\{k\}}(G)\) is a subgroup of \(G\) so coincides with \(\Omega_k(G)\), but this is not the

Three types of relationship power may matter with respect to husband violence: attempted power, actual power, and achieved power. Analyses of a randomly selected representative sample of 270 married or partnered women in Kathmandu ...

Air power as police power

Environment and Planning D: Society and Space, 2013
This paper makes a case for understanding air power through the lens of police. After first rethinking a key period in the history of air power (colonial bombing campaigns) as a police mechanism, the paper then moves to consider the impoverished conception of war and police in contemporary critical theory.

The Power of the Defender

26th IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems Workshops (ICDCSW'06), 2006
We consider a security problem on a distributed network. We assume a network whose nodes are vulnerable to infection by threats (e.g. viruses), the attackers. A system security software, the defender, is available in the system. However, due to the networkÂ’s size, economic and performance reasons, it is capable to provide safety, i.e.
