Good Power - Pipe Dream or Possible?
863 Hay Street (Cloisters), Perth
In recent years, power has got a bad rap. It’s toxic – and intoxicating. It was Lord Acton, when writing to Archbishop Creighton in 1887, who so famously quipped: ‘Power (tends to) corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely’. This is a sentiment that would be heartily shared by many today, almost 140 years later. But are there any examples in history of those who have held great power and not misused it?
Is the good use of power impossible to conceive? What would it look like for a great one to give up power? Come along and hear Peter Wrench wrestle with this intriguing question.
