The International Forum for Democratic Studies at NED presents Democracy Ideas: an interview with Moisés Naím, Senior Associate in the International Economics Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and NED Board Member, discussing his book, "The End of Power."
Under Secretary for International Affairs Lael Brainard previewed the upcoming meeting of G20 finance ministers and central bank governors in Russia. Brainard also discussed the U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue. Moisés Naím moderated.
Moisés Naím has drawn the attention of decision-making circles in Washington through more than one book on the Middle East. Of Libyan descent, Naím was raised in Venezuela, where he served briefly as the minister of trade and industry. He is, perhaps, most well-known for his 14 years at the helm of Foreign Policy magazine. He oversaw a renaissance at the publication, including the launch of an Arabic version. Unusual in his belief that power is not just changing hands today, it is declining, his latest book argues that it is becoming increasingly easy to lose power.
On this edition of the program Moises Naim, former Minister of Industry and Trade in Venezuela, Senior Associate at the Carnegie Endowment's International Economics Program, and the author of "The End of Power: From Boardrooms to Battlefields and Churches to States, Why Being In Charge Isn't What It Used to Be."
Guest speaker Moisés Naím of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace offered advice to graduates in the American University School of International Service.
Moisés Naím speaks to students of Stanford Business School in Spring 2013. Excerpt shared from the Stanford Graduate School of Business’ YouTube channel.
The nature of power is changing around the world, from political protests against dictatorships to startup companies competing with large corporations. In "The End of Power: From Boardrooms to Battlefields and Churches to States, Why Being In Charge Isn't What It Used to Be," Moisés Naím, scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and former editor-in-chief of Foreign Policy magazine, discusses what these power shifts mean for individuals and nations.
Author Moisés Naím talks about his book "The End of Power" and the challenges people like North Korean leader Kim Jong un faces in this online-only portion of Ray Suarez's interview.
As the age of superpowers has given way to that of micro-powers, the nature of power itself has changed. Náim, a columnist and former Foreign Policy editor, looks at power in a variety of contexts, from governments to business to popular movements, and finds that power today has a subversive nature that makes it both harder to use and easier to lose.
Power has become perishable, transient, evanescent. Those in power today are likely to have shorter periods in power than their predecessors. I’m talking about military power and power in business, politics, religion. One of the most perplexing arenas in which this is happening is in the world of business where the conversation centres on the concentration of wealth in a few large companies. Of course there are large, powerful companies but a study by NYU professors shows that the probability of a company in the top 20% of the business sector remaining in that category five years hence has halved. The turnover rate of business executives is also increasing significantly. It is far more slippery at the top.
The “more revolution” – there are more of us, and we have more resources – overwhelms power. The “mobility revolution” circumvents power by moving people and information further and faster. And the “mentality revolution” undermines it by making people less deferential.
Moisés Naím hosted a lively conversation about his book The End of Power with New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman and Carnegie Endowment President Jessica Mathews. The book has attracted significant attention. Bill Clinton said, “The End of Power will change the way you read the news, the way you think about politics, and the way you look at the world.”
On September 28th, 2012, Dr. Moisés Naím took part in the Georgetown TEDx forum which was later aired on the organizations YouTube channel. Watch his presentation here!
Senator Mark Warner, an organizer of the Senate’s "Gang of Six" deficit reduction initiative and a prominent voice on deficit reduction, discussed how the United States can reduce its deficit and improve its long-term fiscal outlook. Carnegie’s Moisés Naím moderated.
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.
In coming years, clashes between cultures or religions will be a far less important source of international friction than the changes in living standards of the global middle classes. In a video Q&A, Moisés Naím discusses how the economic slowdown in rich countries and the continuing growth of emerging markets will intersect to fuel domestic political conflicts and reduce the ability of governments to cooperate internationally with each other.
One year after 9/11, seventeen Carnegie experts assessed the global significance of the attacks and their aftermath. It was clear then that 9/11 had changed the United States far more than it had the rest of the world. Washington’s new agenda of attacking terrorism around the world and building greater security at home blotted out other issues.
