This page or section is a stub. Perhaps you can help add something to it? 😊

Giving a brief overview of what power is (social & political context), what it can achieve, how power dynamics (e.g. imbalance between individuals) work.

Preferably using terminology from sociology/social sciences, and with citations, to make it easier for people to research certain topics and concepts if they want a deep dive.

Try to keep it broad and general regarding the concept without too many examples or going into the specifics, which can each have their own page if such detail is necessary.

Maybe add a section on why autistic people can struggle to intuitively perceive certain power dynamics; maybe linking to Social status somewhere.
