Theodore Caplow writes: "Opinions differ about whether it is better for a manager to be loved or feared by subordinates, but to be loved and feared is best of all." Managers have lawful authority and can gain additional power over subordinates so that they will be obeyed for several reasons. What are the proper sources of authority? (You should remember Max Weber on this.) Give three of Weber's sources for authority, then comment on how one or more might be applied in support of Caplow's statement.
