But power is not merely shifting and dispersing. It is also decaying. Those in power today are more constrained in what they can do with it and more at risk of losing it than ever before. In The End of Power, award-winning columnist and former Foreign Policy editor Moises Naim illuminates the struggle between once-dominant megaplayers and the new micropowers challenging them in every field of human endeavor. Drawing on provocative, original research, Naim shows how the antiestablishment drive of micropowers can topple tyrants, dislodge monopolies, and open remarkable new opportunities, but it can also lead to chaos and paralysis. Naim deftly covers the seismic changes underway in business, religion, education, within families, and in all matters of war and peace. Examples abound in all walks of life: In 1977, eighty-nine countries were ruled by autocrats while today more than half the world's population lives in democracies. CEO's are more constrained and have shorter tenures than their predecessors. Modern tools of war, cheaper and more accessible, make it possible for groups like Hezbollah to afford their own drones. In the second half of 2010, the top ten hedge funds earned more than the world's largest six banks combined. Those in power retain it by erecting powerful barriers to keep challengers at bay. Today, insurgent forces dismantle those barriers more quickly and easily than ever, only to find that they themselves become vulnerable in the process.

Parece que el poder haya estudiado todos los controles concebidos por las sociedades libres durante siglos para eludirlos y, despu s, contraatacar. Por eso puedo afirmar que estamos ante la revancha de los poderosos. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eENGLISH DESCRIPTION\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eMois s Na m's \u003ci\u003eThe Revenge of Power\u003c\/i\u003e is an urgent, thrilling, and original look at the future of democracy. It illuminates one of the most important battles of our time: the future of freedom and how to contain and defeat the autocrats mushrooming around the world.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn his \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e best-selling book \u003ci\u003eThe End of Power\u003c\/i\u003e, Mois s Na m examined power-diluting forces. In \u003ci\u003eThe Revenge of Power\u003c\/i\u003e, Na m turns to the trends, conditions, and behaviors that are contributing to the concentration of power, and to the clash between those forces that weaken power and those that strengthen it. He concentrates on the three Ps - populism, polarization, and post-truths. All of which are as old as time, but are combined by today's autocrats to undermine democratic life in new and frightening ways. Power has not changed. But the way people go about gaining it and using it has been transformed. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Revenge of Power\u003c\/i\u003e connects the dots between global events and political tactics that, when taken together, show a profound and often stealthy transformation in power and politics worldwide. Using the best available data and insights taken from recent research in the social sciences, Na m reveals how, on close examination, the same set of strategies to consolidate power pop up again and again in places with vastly different political, economic, and social circumstances, and offers insights about what can be done to ensure that freedom and democracy prevail. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe outcomes of these battles for power will determine if our future will be more autocratic or more democratic. These outcomes will, in turn, depend on the capacity of our democracies to survive the attacks and dirty tricks of autocratic leaders bent on weakening the checks and balances that limit their power. Na m addresses the questions at the heart of the matter: What are, in practice, those attacks and tricks? Why is power concentrating in some places while in others it is fragmenting and degrading? And the big question: What is the future of freedom?","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50958537031953,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50958539555089,"sku":"CIN1644735741VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53043298369809,"sku":"CIN1644735741G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1644735741.jpg?v=1751057665"},{"product_id":"charlatans-book-moises-naim-9781541606517","title":"Charlatans","description":"From snake oil salesmen to Donald Trump, the gripping story of charlatans - and why we fall for them","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51624415691025,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51624417001745,"sku":"NGR9781541606517","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52495369109777,"sku":"NIN9781541606517","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53150460215569,"sku":"CIN1541606515VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53221606850833,"sku":"NLS9781541606517","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53543654818065,"sku":"GOR014957089","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53593653838097,"sku":"GOR014973730","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1541606515.jpg?v=1773914175"},{"product_id":"o-fim-do-poder-em-portuguese-do-brasil-book-moises-naim-9788580449181","title":"O Fim do Poder (Em Portuguese do Brasil)","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53603921592593,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53603921854737,"sku":"CIN8580449189G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9788580449181.jpg?v=1779969631"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-moises-naim.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
