"The book tries to show how paradoxical meritocracy is. It is transformed by being used through politics and its dark side towards inequality.

The remedy is to remind the successful that the position of the family or nation where they were born allowed them to be successful. Humility is the antidote to the arrogance of meritocracy".

Michael Sandel's reflection and his book The Tyranny of Merit in conversation with Moisés Naím.

Recent attempted transitions to democracy in the Arab world, Asia, Africa, and elsewhere have met severe headwinds.

Drawing on a new book edited by Sergio Bitar and Abraham Lowenthal, Democratic Transitions: Conversations with World Leaders (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2015), this symposium probed the findings of a set of in-depth interviews with leaders of successful democratic transitions. Special focus was given to two current cases of pressing importance: Myanmar and Venezuela.

Angie G50

Carnegie Endowment for International Peace

The entangled threat of crime, corruption, and terrorism remain important security challenges in the twenty-first century. In her new book, Dirty Entanglements: Corruption, Crime, and Terrorism, Louise Shelley argues that their continued spread can be traced to economic and demographic inequalities, the rise of ethnic and sectarian violence, climate change, the growth of technology, and the past failure of international institutions to respond to these challenges when they first emerged.

Carnegie held a discussion with Louise Shelley. Milan Vaishnev acted as discussant, and Moisés Naím moderated.

Politics and Prose / YouTube

As the age of superpowers has given way to that of micro-powers, the nature of power itself has changed.

The G20 and the Eurozone Crisis

Angie G50

Carnegie Endowment for International Peace

Following the G20 summit at Cannes, Treasury Department Under Secretary for International Affairs Lael Brainard and Moisés Naím discussed the key developments to come out of the summit and what they mean for the euro and the global economy.

In Cannes, G20 leaders made a subtle but profound shift back to safeguarding the global recovery, said Brainard. G20 members, however, are facing different challenges and have different political constraints, preventing the universal call for stimulus that followed the 2009 London summit. Nevertheless, policymakers are uniformly focused on growth and financial stability.
