- This 252-page book is the result of eight years of work developing, refining, researching, writing, and revising. A work of original political theory, it required four years of extensive scholarship as well as many years of conceptual development. The book investigates the question of the mechanics of political power through the lens of complexity theory, a body of thought that studies complex systems. It brings together post-Marxist political theory with a diverse array of perspectives on social complexity, from sociologists to economists, philosophers, anarchists, and conservatives. The book synthesises these diverse materials into a new theory of hegemonic power.
