  • Mourinho at Manchester: a Study of Power at the World's
    Mourinho at Manchester: A Study of Power at the World’s Most Valuable Soccer Club This paper draws on John Kenneth Galbraith’s bestselling book, The Anatomy of Power, to reflect on the operation of power in the context of a professional soccer club. Galbraith’s framework, which is composed of three sources and three instruments of power, is first described and then illustrated via an analysis of José Mourinho’s brief tenure as manager of Manchester United. The findings offer support for Galbraith’s suggestion that the role of ‘personality’ (in this case managerial personality) is often overemphasized in accounts of power. The paper concludes with a discussion of Galbraith’s ‘dialectic of power’ – its tendency to produce countervailing expressions and positions – and focuses in particular on the social media-enhanced power of celebrity players. To paraphrase Marx, while soccer managers may make their own history, they do not do so in circumstances of their own choosing (Wagg, 2007: 442). Introduction Shortly after the death of world-famous economist and public intellectual, John Kenneth Galbraith, fellow economist Milton Friedman characterized his work as ‘not so much economics as it is sociology’ (Frank, 2006). There is much evidence to support such a characterization. Throughout his life, Galbraith fought for social justice and argued for a new kind of socialism. Indeed, rather like renowned political economist, Karl Marx, Galbraith may well have been a sociologist at heart. His most widely-read works, including the best- selling The Affluent Society (1971) and The Anatomy of Power (1985), the subject of the present paper, drew heavily on social theory – the latter beginning with an extended account of Max Weber’s theorization of power.
