As it turns out, the door to power isn’t even locked.
This post is a follow up to The Four Types of Power, in which I described different types of power, as follows:
- Tyrannical (Coercive, Zero-Sum)
Ex. monopolies, unregulated financial markets - Diabolical (Coercive, Non-Zero-Sum)
Ex. slavery, colonialism, human trafficking, illegal tax havens, cons - Competitive (Non-Coercive, Zero-Sum)
Ex. sports, reasonably regulated economies, marketing/advertising - Progressive (Non-Coercive, Non-Zero-Sum)
Ex. invention, innovation, infrastructure, education, exploration, creating new markets, connectivity, information sharing
