On Friday: The End of Power
Traditional leaders have experienced a decay in power, as observed by the challenges faced by the pope and the economic problems the U.S. government is fighting to resolve.
Source: MSNBC Morning Joe
On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Carnegie’s Moisés Naím discusses the fleeting nature of power, as he argues in his new book, the End of Power. This is due to three revolutions: more of everything, mobility of ideas, and a subsequent change in mentality. There are huge challenges that are faced by the newly elected Pope Francis I and his power within and over the Catholic church, as well as the political and economic discourse in Washington, DC. Traditional leaders are no longer as powerful, as power has become tougher to wield.
