Mark Zuckerberg Book Club Pick Surprises Author Moisés Naím

Social media can both play a role in the dispersion of power and is itself a consequence of that dispersion.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced at the start of 2015 that his goal for the year was to read one new book every other week and discuss it with fellow readers on his “A Year of Books” Facebook page. He also revealed that The End of Power by Carnegie expert Moisés Naím would be the first selection. Naím sat down to discuss The End of Power, why he believes Zuckerberg chose the book, and his shock of finding out he had been selected with Bloomberg’s Trish Regan on “Street Smart.”

The full interview is available at BloombergTV.
