Abstract

In this article, we define and explore the behavioral aspects of power. Power is conceptualized and measured as a characteristic of simultaneous influence relationships among nation-states, rather than as an attribute possessed by nation-states. An analytical definition of one nation-state's ability to produce behavior in other nation-states is developed. Using data on the behavioral interactions of contemporary nation-states, these ideas are examined empirically in a subset of fifty nation-states. Behavioral power is compared with various measures of power capabilities.
