I am Paul Laudicina, chairman emeritus of Kearney and founder of its Global Business Policy Council, and this is Coronavirus: a world transformed.
He served as editor in chief of Foreign Policy, as Venezuela's trade minister, and as executive director of the World Bank.Moisés Naím: What is very interesting in all of this crisis is that a lot of what we thought was permanent-institutions, individuals, ideas, business models, ways of working, that we thought were permanent-turned out to be transient, and new things that we believe that were just temporary became normal.
Moisés Naím is a Distinguished Fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and an internationally syndicated columnist. Naím addresses the questions at the heart of the matter: What are, in practice, those attacks and tricks? Why is power concentrating in some places while in others it is fragmenting and degrading? And the big question: What is the future of freedom? These outcomes will, in turn, depend on the capacity of our democracies to survive the attacks and dirty tricks of autocratic leaders bent on weakening the checks and balances that limit their power.
The outcomes of these battles for power will determine if our future will be more autocratic or more democratic. Using the best available data and insights taken from recent research in the social sciences, Naím reveals how, on close examination, the same set of strategies to consolidate power pop up again and again in places with vastly different political, economic, and social circumstances, and offers insights about what can be done to ensure that freedom and democracy prevail. The Revenge of Power connects the dots between global events and political tactics that, when taken together, show a profound and often stealthy transformation in power and politics worldwide. But the way people go about gaining it and using it has been transformed. All of which are as old as time, but are combined by today's autocrats to undermine democratic life in new and frightening ways. He concentrates on the three "P"s-populism, polarization, and post-truths. In The Revenge of Power, Naím turns to the trends, conditions, and behaviors that are contributing to the concentration of power, and to the clash between those the forces that weaken power and those that strengthen it. In his New York Times bestselling book The End of Power, Moisés Naím examined power-diluting forces. It illuminates one of the most important battles of our time: the future of freedom and how to contain and defeat the autocrats mushrooming around the world.
