The End of Power: From Boardrooms to Battlefields and Churches to States, Why Being in Charge Isn't What It Used to Be (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780465065691)

The provocative bestseller explaining the decline of power in the twenty-first century -- in government, business, and beyond.
br> Power is shifting -- from large, stable armies to loose bands of insurgents, from corporate leviathans to nimble start-ups, and from presidential palaces to public squares. But power is also changing, becoming harder to use and easier to lose. In The End of Power, award-winning columnist and former Foreign Policy editor Moisﾃ(c)Naﾃ-illuminates the struggle between once-dominant megaplayers and the new micropowers challenging them in every field of human endeavor. Drawing on provocative, original research and a lifetime of experience in global affairs, Naﾃ-explains how the end of power is reconfiguring our world.
