Political power and social influence
Abstract
In this article we have tried to show that Social Psychology, and more precisely the Social Psychology of minorities, that has developped through the experimental method in the laboratory context, can help us approach the complicated phenomena of social transformation. In order to confirm this proposition we have presented six applications of the theory of the social influence processes in social reality, including the political dimension (Solzenitsin as an active minority, The women is movement of Italy, The charisma and the emergence, The relations of Greek-Cypriots and TurkishCypriots, The revolt of the Polytechnic, The Cooperation «movement»). In the article we have not only presented the above mentioned studies, but we have also focused on the relation of the theory of social influence processes with marxism.
