Description

Emotions in Command explores the foundations of organisational power through Frank Salter's groundbreaking investigation into why people obey their superiors. Published by Routledge, this book seeks a universal theory of organisations applicable across all cultures by examining the behavioural dynamics of hierarchical interactions within institutional settings. Salter moves beyond conventional sociology to locate the source of organisational authority in the biological and psychological details of human behaviour, bridging anthropology, behavioural science, and organisational theory. The work challenges traditional explanations of hierarchy and obedience, offering fresh insights into how emotions, biology, and cultural systems shape the exercise and acceptance of power in institutions worldwide. Essential reading for scholars of anthropology, sociology, and organisational studies.
