Power and Innocence

Mehr zum Buch

Rollo May explores the duality of power and innocence, defining power as the capacity to effect change and innocence as the voluntary relinquishment of that power, which he associates with a uniquely American mindset. He proposes a new ethical framework that recognizes power as a fundamental element in the spectrum of human behavior, influencing both goodness and evil. Through this lens, May invites readers to reconsider their understanding of power and its implications for morality and personal responsibility.
