Relation Conducive To Books El fin del poder

El poder está cambiando de manos: de grandes ejércitos disciplinados a caóticas bandas de insurgentes; de gigantescas corporaciones a ágiles emprendedores; de los palacios presidenciales a las plazas públicas. Pero también está cambiando en sí mismo: cada vez es más difícil de ejercer y más fácil de perder. El resultado, como afirma el prestigioso analista internacional Moisés Naím, es que los líderes actuales tienen menos poder que sus antecesores, y que el potencial para que ocurran cambios repentinos y radicales sea mayor que nunca.

En El fin del poder, Naím describe la lucha entre los grandes actores antes dominantes y los nuevos micropoderes que ahora les desafían en todos los ámbitos de la actividad humana. La energía iconoclasta de los micropoderes puede derrocar dictadores, acabar con los monopolios y abrir nuevas e increíbles oportunidades, pero también puede conducir al caos y la parálisis.

William Jefferson Clinton

«Este libro fascinante debe provocar un debate sobre cómo gobernar un mundo en el que cada vez participan más personas.»
Foreign Affairs

«Un libro oportuno y perdurable.»

Comment On About Books El fin del poder

The End of Power expands the banal point that challenges to power in business, politics, religion and other realms arise more quickly, less predictably and more successfully than ever before in human history. The author attributes this shift in power dynamics to material abundance, population mobility, and rising aspirations among societies as they climb Maslow's hierarchy. From here he proposes new social, political and economic mechanisms to harness power and avoid chaos. If this logic flow

(Speaking for myself only, not the site I founded which is generously cited in this book)Power is flowing to regular people, people who've never had much of a voice, largely facilitated by the Internet.)The End of Power discusses the categories of power and influence, and how the nature of power is decentralizing at an evolutionary pace. (Not so bad, since modern revolutions get people killed, and often the new boss is as bad as the old boss, or worse.)Maybe End of Power will inspire more people

What attracted me to this book was the credentials of the author, a former high ranking official in the Venezuelan government- would seem to be a position where one would quickly learn about the abuse of power. Sadly there is no mention of the authors time in the South. Instead the author crafted a most excellent story about change and what it means for all of us, good and bad. To start with the decline of power has largely been a good thing, more people are now capable of living life on terms

I hopped on the Zuckerberg bandwagon and decided to read this book. It took me a long time to finish because although the concept is engaging (like, you mean the END of power?) the writing is not so much.Chapter 4 (about the More, Mobility, and Mentality Revolutions) and chapters 5 through 9 (examples of decay in different contexts) were the most enjoyable. Naím makes a good case that power, indeed, is decaying in business, the military, politics, and elsewhere.Where he lost me was in chapters

You shall not have other gods but the government, and the government should be named by someone Naim likes.

Interesting thesis, but it could have been said in 30 pages rather than 300. The writing is dull and dry. The examples are broad but the research is not deep. There are too many statistics and not enough stories. The evidence cited is shallow enough that the book is not convincing and the writing repetitive enough that it is not engaging.

Mark Zuckerberg hit it out of the park with this one, the first selection in his attempt to channel Oprah Winfrey with his own book club. The End of Power is a remarkably insightful inquiry into the limits of power in todays wired world, when a tiny group of fanatics can upend national policy half a world away. As Naim writes, referring not just to global leadership but to corporate executive suites, established churches, and the military, the powerful are experiencing increasingly greater
