The Faces of New Power

April 02, 2018

In George Orwell’s dystopian novel 1984, O’Brien, a leader in the Inner Party concludes that “Power is not a means; it is an end." In the 20th century, that may have been true. But in the 21st century, we’re seeing new power rules take shape before our very eyes. On this episode, Mark Joseph Stern of Slate talks about the March For Our Lives Rally. And in the book chat, Jeremy Heimans, discusses his new book, New Power: How Power Works In Our Hyperconnected World—And How To Make It Work For You.
