The author employs the basic ideas and techniques of currend modal logic in the construction of a general theory of action and interaction. The theory is applied to the investigation of a variety of related types of social or interpersonal power. The topics treated include social control and influence, punitive and normative action, and forms of power which pertain to both influence and normative action. There is also a full examination of rights on the basis of Hohfeld's analysis of fundamental legal concepts.
In the models advanced, exercise of power is viewed under certain hypotheses of consistency or rationality. These yield for example, such principles as that 'Ought' entails 'May' and that 'May' entails 'Can', and in combination with the logic of action they provide the tools by means of which interaction systems are analysed. Emphasis is throughout on the common logical structure of power relations in different systems. These reveal a systematic unity of thought in a field which has so far received little attention among logicians. The main results are presented in conveniently ordered diagrams which facilitate comparison and permit rapid reviews.
