The End of Power: Why Being in Charge Isn’t What it Used to Be
Power in the twenty-first century is a less concrete asset than it once was.
By Moisés Naím
Published on Jan 16, 2015
Source: WNYC’s Takeaway
Moisés Naím has worked as Venezuela's trade and industry minister, as well as editor-in-chief of Foreign Policy magazine, and those experiences have led him to conclude that power just isn't what it used to be.
Naím is the author of the book, The End of Power, which shot to fame after it was selected by Facebook Founder Mark Zuckerberg for his new book club.In this broadcast, Moisés Naím joins The Takeaway to discuss his book and his own experience of power, and what he hopes the Facebook CEO and his fans will take from his work.

- Caught in the Middle: Chinese Biotech Firms’ Divergent Responses to U.S. SanctionsCommentary
Chinese biotech companies have been on the receiving end of U.S. economic coercion. Yet their responses have differed significantly because firm and state interests are not uniformly aligned. For Washington, treating all Chinese tech firms the same, irrespective of their actual interests, risks pushing them farther into Beijing’s corner.

- China Sells Stability Amid American VolatilityCommentary
U.S. unpredictability has allowed China to capitalize on its positioning as the “responsible great power”. Paradoxically, the more China wins the perception game, the more likely expectations will rise for Beijing to deliver not just words but to demonstrate with its deeds.
