The Revenge of Power

Moisés Naím's "The Revenge of Power" explores the resurgence of authoritarianism and populism globally.

Naím argues that power is becoming more fragmented and decentralized, leading to a rise in strongman leaders and challenges to democratic institutions.

The book examines various forms of power, including economic, political, and technological, and how they interact in the modern world.

Naím analyzes the strategies employed by authoritarian regimes to consolidate power and suppress dissent.

He also offers insights into how democratic societies can better defend themselves against these threats.

Ultimately, the book serves as a warning about the fragility of democracy and the need for constant vigilance.
