Abstract:

Power distance defined as the extent to which a society accepts the fact that power in institutions and organizations is distributed unequally. With the deepening of economic globalization and the rapid development of China's market economy, related researches have gradually increased in the theoretical academic circles, but many questions, shortages and arguments still exist and need to be discussed. Based on a literature research, this paper systematically sorts out and integrates the research findings of power distance with regard to origins and concepts, structure and measurement, influencing factors and outcome variables.Furthermore, it explores the mediators/moderators and theoretical basis of existing researches, and points out future directions in power distance.

Key words: power, power distance, power distance orientation, the congruence in power distance
