Political resources comprise coercion, capital, and commitment

Evidence

Political resources divide broadly into coercion, capital, and commitment. The term “coercion” includes all concerted means of action that commonly cause loss or damage to the persons, possessions, or sustaining social relations of social actors. It features such means as weapons, armed forces, prisons, damaging information, and organized routines for imposing sanctions. Coercion’s organization helps define the nature of regimes. With low accumulations of coercion, all regimes are insubstantial, while with high levels of coercive accumulation and concentration all regimes are formidable. — Charles Tilly, Regimes and Repertoires, 127
