This helps to create a variety of research focuses and use of methodologies as different scholars' understanding of power differs.

In part, this is a product of the growing complexity of social relations, the impact of social movement organizing, and the relative weakening of the state as a result of globalization. To a significant part, however, it is due to the radical rethinking of <a href="/wiki/Social_theory" title="Social theory">social theory</a>. This is as much focused now on micro questions (such as the formation of identity through social interaction, the politics of knowledge, and the effects of the contestation of meaning on structures), as it is on macro questions (such as how to capture and use state power). Chief influences here include cultural studies (<a href="/wiki/Stuart_Hall_(cultural_theorist)" title="Stuart Hall (cultural theorist)">Stuart Hall</a>), post-structuralism (<a href="/wiki/Michel_Foucault" title="Michel Foucault">Michel Foucault</a>, <a href="/wiki/Judith_Butler" title="Judith Butler">Judith Butler</a>), pragmatism (<a href="/wiki/Luc_Boltanski" title="Luc Boltanski">Luc Boltanski</a>), structuration theory (<a href="/wiki/Anthony_Giddens" title="Anthony Giddens">Anthony Giddens</a>), and cultural sociology (<a href="/wiki/Jeffrey_C._Alexander" title="Jeffrey C. Alexander">Jeffrey C. Alexander</a>). </p><p>Political sociology attempts to explore the dynamics between the two institutional systems introduced by the advent of Western capitalist system that are the democratic constitutional liberal state and the capitalist economy. While democracy promises impartiality and legal equality before all citizens, the capitalist system results in unequal <a href="/wiki/Economic_power" title="Economic power">economic power</a> and thus possible political inequality as well. </p><p>For pluralists,<sup id="cite_ref-37" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-37"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>37<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> the distribution of political power is not determined by economic interests but by multiple social divisions and political agendas. The diverse political interests and beliefs of different factions work together through collective organizations to create a flexible and fair representation that in turn influences political parties which make the decisions. The distribution of power is then achieved through the interplay of contending interest groups. The government in this model functions just as a mediating broker and is free from control by any economic power. This pluralistic democracy however requires the existence of an underlying framework that would offer mechanisms for citizenship and expression and the opportunity to organize representations through social and industrial organizations, such as trade unions. Ultimately, decisions are reached through the complex process of bargaining and compromise between various groups pushing for their interests. Many factors, pluralists believe, have ended the domination of the political sphere by an economic elite. The power of organized labour and the increasingly interventionist state have placed restrictions on the power of capital to manipulate and control the state. Additionally, capital is no longer owned by a dominant class, but by an expanding managerial sector and diversified shareholders, none of whom can exert their will upon another. </p><p>The pluralist emphasis on fair representation however overshadows the constraints imposed on the extent of choice offered. Bachrauch and Baratz (1963) examined the deliberate withdrawal of certain policies from the political arena. For example, organized movements that express what might seem as radical change in a society can often by portrayed as illegitimate.<sup id="cite_ref-38" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-38"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>38<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Power_elite">Power elite</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Political_sociology&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Power elite"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>A main rival to pluralist theory in the United States was the theory of the "power elite" by sociologist <a href="/wiki/C._Wright_Mills" title="C. Wright Mills">C. Wright Mills</a>. According to Mills, the eponymous "power elite" are those that occupy the dominant positions, in the dominant institutions (military, economic and political) of a dominant country, and their decisions (or lack of decisions) have enormous consequences, not only for the U.S. population but, "the underlying populations of the world." The institutions which they head, Mills posits, are a triumvirate of groups that have succeeded weaker predecessors: (1) "two or three hundred giant corporations" which have replaced the traditional agrarian and craft economy, (2) a strong federal political order that has inherited power from "a decentralized set of several dozen states" and "now enters into each and every cranny of the social structure", and (3) the military establishment, formerly an object of "distrust fed by state militia," but now an entity with "all the grim and clumsy efficiency of a sprawling bureaucratic domain." Importantly, and in distinction from modern American <a href="/wiki/Conspiracy_theory" title="Conspiracy theory">conspiracy theory</a>, Mills explains that the elite themselves may not be aware of their status as an elite, noting that "often they are uncertain about their roles" and "without conscious effort, they absorb the aspiration to be ... The Onecide." Nonetheless, he sees them as a quasi-hereditary caste. The members of the power elite, according to Mills, often enter into positions of societal prominence through educations obtained at establishment universities. The resulting elites, who control the three dominant institutions (military, economy and political system) can be generally grouped into one of six types, according to Mills: </p> <ul><li>the "Metropolitan 400", members of historically notable local families in the principal American cities, generally represented on the <a href="/wiki/Social_Register" title="Social Register">Social Register</a></li> <li>"Celebrities", prominent entertainers and media personalities</li> <li>the "Chief Executives", presidents and CEOs of the most important companies within each industrial sector</li> <li>the "Corporate Rich", major landowners and corporate shareholders</li> <li>the "Warlords", senior military officers, most importantly the <a href="/wiki/Joint_Chiefs_of_Staff" title="Joint Chiefs of Staff">Joint Chiefs of Staff</a></li> <li>the "Political Directorate", "fifty-odd men of the executive branch" of the U.S. federal government, including the senior leadership in the <a href="/wiki/Executive_Office_of_the_President" class="mw-redirect" title="Executive Office of the President">Executive Office of the President</a>, sometimes variously drawn from elected officials of the <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Party_of_the_United_States" class="mw-redirect" title="Democratic Party of the United States">Democratic</a> and <a href="/wiki/Republican_Party_of_the_United_States" class="mw-redirect" title="Republican Party of the United States">Republican</a> parties but usually professional government <a href="/wiki/Bureaucrat" title="Bureaucrat">bureaucrats</a></li></ul> <p>Mills formulated a very short summary of his book: "Who, after all, runs America?
