- Authors
CHAMIE, JOSÉ FÉLIX
- Abstract
The concept of power and its origin have occupied a prominent place in the history of political thought, the most dedicated authors have focused their attention on the idea of personal power and power of the group. The idea of power of the group have a close relationship with the modern concept of popular sovereignty, when the laboratory of history has prepared a place for that fiction of the bourgeois conception of power, head of the new concept of state (Staat). The author revives old interpretations about the origin of power, focusing on the concepts of imperium and imperator in Roman Public law tradition, looking for interpretations that help us to better understand the modern conception of political power, in order to establish whether this is a natural evolution of public law or simply a political proposal prevailed over another.
