THESES ON THE STICKS OF POWER

Nikola Visković ; Pravni fakultet Sveučilišta u Splitu, Split, Hrvatska

Sažetak

The author analyses the symbolism of the concepts such as stick, rod, club and birch in the metaphorical political terminology. The author shows that these symbols are present both in the language of the Western political philosophy and the non-Western cultures, while their connotations vary: they are reminiscent of a phallus, of a warrior’s spear and arrow, a cudgel which a master uses on his disobedient slaves and family members, a shepherd’s staff for managing his herd and the accoutrements used both in black and white magic.
