TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesize the literature on the nature of power to develop a new conceptual framework that highlights the multiple dimensions of power involved in institutional development and change, and argue that such a theoretically informed mapping of power in institutions will enable scholars, practitioners and citizen groups to go beyond the standard critiques in order to analyze the multifaceted effects of neoliberal institutional change.

TL;DR: The natural world is built on the foundations of co-existence as mentioned in this paper, and the recent antiracist movement in the US is a direct consequence of the coexistence of animals.
