	Balance of Power: Personal Power -- by Sunni Maravillosa
		While there's a lot of overlap between personal and political power, especially under the boots of a state that attempts to act as individuals' parents, personal power is much too important to leave as an afterthought.
		Often when a balance of personal power in a friendship shifts toward one party, individuals may speak of a friend being manipulated, used, or taken advantage of.
		Parents obviously have power over their young children, but if they handle the responsibility to raise a child well, he or she will gradually take on more personal power, and wield it more effectively.

	Balance of Power: Political Power -- by Sunni Maravillosa
		Now that the 2004 election is mostly over, it's a good time to take up my examination of power again, and address the concept of political power.
		Electoral political power, in this view, is the primary vehicle by which individuals wield political power over the politicians they elect, and the legislative process the politicians then undertake.
		Coercion under the rule of law is replaced by voluntary persuasion: an individual may invest personal power in crafting and disseminating an idea, which others may choose to listen to, consider, and accept or reject.

	Interdependence, institutions and the balance of power: Britain, Germany, and World War I.
		If the threatening power has non-democratic political institutions that prevent internationalist economic interests in that state from having much of a say in the political process, there may be a legitimate concern that confrontational policies would lead to a response that might include a severing of economic ties.
		For this reason too, then, constraints on balancing may come from vested interests of a status quo power that have economic ties with perceived threatening powers, and from political leaders wary about substantial economic adjustment costs if the ties were to break down as a result of confrontation.
		Conversely, weaker balancing and conciliatory policies by a status quo power will be signals that make other status quo powers more fearful that their potential ally may not come through on commitments, and aspiring revisionist powers more optimistic about their chances for pursuing aggression without meeting firm and effective opposition.

	ENDING CONFLICT AND WAR: THE BALANCE OF POWERS
		A new balance then means that both parties better perceive their mutual interests that were engaged in the conflict and are willing to live with whatever satisfaction of interests that results from the confrontation.
		Rather, a new balance of powers is a mutual willingness to accept the outcome as a result of the mutually perceived interests, capabilities and wills, and because of the expectation of the costs of further conflict.
		Thus, the attributes of the parties--their wealth, power, politics culture--and their differences and similarities are unrelated to the duration of a war, the settlement procedures used, or the specific outcome.

		Lyrically, BALANCE OF POWER anticipates the break-up, and reflects ELO's declining commercial fortunes: "Can it really be so serious/To be all broken up and delirious/I guess we've really been out of touch/But can it really be so serious?" Lynne asks on the sharp, new-wavey "So Serious" (a classic, must hear track).
		Critics and fans alike seem to regard Balance of Power, ELO's final studio LP from 1986, as little more than a footnote to the band's illustrious hit-making career.
		ELO devotees will certainly hear segments throughout "Balance of Power" that are reminiscent of the earlier LP's, but Jeff and company make an effort with this album to cover new ground by adding saxophone accompaniment into the mix.
