Summary The book's overall theme points out while it is becoming easier to get power, it is also becoming harder to use it to control others and harder to keep it once you have it. Naim suggests that globalization, economic growth, a growing global middle class, the spread of democracy, and rapidly expanding telecommunications technologies have changed our world. He says these developments have created a fluid and unpredictable environment which has unsettled the traditional dominions of power. Reception On January 2, 2015, selected The End of Power as his inaugural pick for his 'Year of Books' challenge for the Mark Zuckerberg book club, a public resolution to read one new book every two weeks in 2015.

The End of Power starts like dynamite. Moises Naim, an extremely well-respected and well-informed author (he thanks everybody who's anybody in the acknowledgments except perhaps for David Beckham) is truly on fire to begin with. He starts the book by telling you what power is. He defines it as the ability to make others do what you want them to do. By Moises Naim Basic Books, USA, 2013 320 pp., $27.99 ISBN-13: 9566 REVIEWED BY AMY ZALMAN T he title of Moises Naim’s newest book is an apt summary of its basic thesis. The End of Power: From Boardrooms to Battlefields and Churches to States, Why Being in Charge Isn’t What it Used to Be is about exactly.
