Image of The Pillars of Power, aka Pillars of Support, as presented by The Commons Library (based in Australia). In this image we see a simple image reminiscent of Greek architecture: a triangular roof labeled “Regime/Status Quo” sits atop six institutional pillars. The pillars are labeled: 1) Military, 2) Schools, 3) Government, 4) Business, 5) Religion, 6) Media. Weakening one, or more, of the pillars weakens the foundation of the regime-if enough pillars crack the regime falls. Ppl know other ppl who are part of each institution within each pillar. By talking with, withholding support from, or boycotting (among other things) institutional support can be influenced & pillars can be weakened.
