Public authority - it is a special phenomenon which characterizes the relationship Mezhuyev people.This concept differs significantly from such forms of influence, such as oratorical talent, or "power" of outstanding intellect.Forced by the imperious impossible to determine the desired behavior of any object, especially with the use of natural abilities or qualities of the phenomenon of value.These forms of influence are the only motivations of behavior, having a spontaneous, unthought character.They can not include the time of their awareness of the authorities (or public authority) and are not perceived as a strong-willed coercion object.
