Abstract | This article examines the role of power in creating social change, focusing on the analysis of key scholars such as Max Weber, Michel Foucault, Antonio Gramsci, and Bruno Latour. The study covers power as a tool for negotiation and conflict, power through discourse and knowledge, cultural hegemony, and the distribution of power within social networks. The findings highlight that power plays a crucial role in social change by influencing both the transformation of social structures and the shifting perspectives of social members, through processes like consent-building, challenging dominant discourses, legitimizing change, and decentralizing power at the grassroots level. |
