This dissertation offers an examination of the concepts
of power and authority in order to highlight two
conflicting conceptions of human behaviour : one in
terms of cause and effect and the other in terms of
reasons. Underlying each are divergent implications fcr
a notion of change.
The concepts of power and authority are critically
examined against the background of Western political
philosophy. Within the context of South Africa, two
influential doctrines, namely Christian National Education
and Pedagogics, are Investigated in terms of the
notions of power and authority which they endorse. |
