Definición

  • Threats are a coercion mechanism used for or pertaining to the exercise of power. In general, a threat by an actor constitutes a penalty to be applied in the absence (or occurrence) of a desired (or undesired) choice by some other actor, with the intention that the threatened actor's behavior will be altered from that which would have occurred had the threat not been present.
