dc.description.abstractThe concepts of power and authority constitute one of the most discussed topics in the realm of political philosophy. Scholars have however found it difficult to draw the line between power and authority. This problem emanated from the fact that scholars seemed to have taken these concepts as twin concepts that may be used interchangeably. The aim of this research is to examine the distinction that has been drawn between power and authority and examine that the former is sociological while the latter is philosophical. The essay shall argue that power can become authority when backed up with justification whilt: authority may take on the position of power while its justification element is removed.en
