Additional base of social power?
When I took his class at UCLA, we students discussed with Professor Raven another possible base of interpersonal influence and social power: CHARISMA. Is charisma another base of social power, or is it already represented by one or more of the above-mentioned bases of social power and interpersonal influence, such as referent, informational, expert, synergistic, or others bases? It seems to capture some of these, but does it capture something else as well, such as the ability to inspire, to have others participate in a cause/movement, to influence others to reframe their social, economic, and political realities, to inspire hope, etc.?
