Power in Systems

Why this lens matters

Power reveals who decides, who benefits, who is controlled and whose interests are made normal.

Follow-ups

1. Who makes the rules?
2. Who is protected, ignored or exposed?
3. What authority legitimizes this?
4. How is compliance encouraged or enforced?
5. Who can safely challenge it?

Perspective shift

How would someone with very little power navigate this?

Perturbation

What happens when authority is challenged, decentralised or made visible?

Example

Use this while working on the institutional and societal systems: choose one concrete detail and ask how power changes what it means.
