Talk:The Legitimation of Power

[Untitled]
A new page. The structure of the page at the moment is such as to avoid getting deleted. Addressing notability and content. I think making it nice to read after a while would be an aim - the notbility evidence seems a bit like advertising but... Anyway (Msrasnw (talk) 10:01, 11 September 2009 (UTC))

The article maybe should contain the very basic premiss of Beetham whereby he debunks the concept of legitimacy as purported by Weber and those following him. It is core to the entire thesis that legitimacy is not about belief of subordinates but rather something more verifiable. Also of use for anyone perusing this page would be to provide the tripartite classification of legitimacy that Beetham provides. All in all, at present the text seems to be more based on someone else's account of what Beetham writes in the book rather than actual first-hand experience of reading the book. --130.232.112.207 (talk) 15:50, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
