As someone who's watching this video in 2024, this explanation of power through soft power, hard power and smart power is extremely well explained and creates a sense of organisation for something as chaotic as power.

The thing is, I'm watching this from 2020 and the way Joseph Nye could anticipate that we have no control over pandemics ans tha China would be passing the USA in certain matters is unbeliavable.

@Treiundzwanzig 3 года назад

How's that unbelievable?

@MrManic52001 Год назад

I mean he is wrong... China is nowhere near surpassing the US.

@Coltsfan 12 лет назад

he defined power diffusion as power moving to non-state actors, and the EU and BRICs are all comprised of state actors. It's a power shift; the US isn't declining, like everyone thinks, but it is becoming weaker because relative to China, it is growing at a snail's pace, so although the US is growing, it's not fast enough to make up the ground China is gaining.

I think it's hilarious that the first suggested video is sailor moon. Soft power.

@Julianbentley 11 лет назад

the term is actually pretty useful. I understand that it might not be relevant to your life but for people embedded in the foreign policy process it actually is. Soft Power is referring to the types of political persuasion and coercion employed by governments that does not stem directly from the military or physical aggression (using hard power). Joining trade unions, facilitating local alliances, strengthening local economies and interdependencies--these are all soft power tactics.

@stevenyeah9541 6 лет назад

Joseph Nye, I'd like to tell you there's a picture in my mind, an old man dressed well on a Sunday morning went to church, he entered the lift, smiled to the stranger with a fake smile. He pretended to be a good gentlemen, and talked about "don't be afraid of the rising China". There're tons of people like this but no one even mentioned that the rise of China or Asia means many poor people are getting out of poverty! I wish the next decade we see rise of Africa, south America, or rise of the poor people in America. Joseph Nye, you're not a professor, and not a gentleman with a open and warm heart, is that the soft power you're talking about?

@streamfan6825 6 лет назад

you got a better shot of China calling in those loans in Africa and within a year every single black person in the continent will be speaking Chinese and wondering where there government is to protect them... Cause thats exactly what China's fixing to do...

@mrlee5051 2 года назад

From the year of 2022, we stilllive in an era of hard power. We are witnessing the Russian invasion of Ukraine, a deadlock in dealing with climate change due largely to nation-states' ambitions, fierce Sino-U.S. competitions, and so on. Soft power is itself important, but hard power is the very nature of international politics.

@sparklymage 14 лет назад

@WyldOrbit Actually it does, and it should comfort you too since it means that a World War or even a Cold War between the U.S. and China is much less likely due to the information age.

@notme222 14 лет назад

Pretty shallow, as tends to be the case with TED talks. (Short version = people will do stuff for you if they like you.) But there's an implication of depth and I'd like to hear more from him. I may have to pull up some of his other videos here.

This is remarkable content. I recently read a book with a similar theme, and it was absolutely astonishing. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint

@Julianbentley 11 лет назад

No, it is meant to contrast with traditional 'hard power'--it really isn't difficult to understand, and its usage within the theme of this man's conversation is really appropriate. It is a relatively broad term; it is indicating the shift in the international politics paradigm from flexing military might in a multipolar world, to a more 'warless' international stage where competing actors vie for influence and power with diplomatic methods that recognize our increasing interdependence.

@bluefootedpig 14 лет назад

The part about china catching up to us and the citizens, might be true to live to where we are, but we are slowly declining, as more countries come onto the world stage and the world gets flatter. So we might drop a lot and be closer to china sooner than he expects.

@prabutube 13 лет назад

great explanation

@Julianbentley 11 лет назад

It is broad, just as the types of military action a state can take are very broad; covert operations, war, supplying arms to rebels, assassinations, drone strikes, air operations, etc. It doesn't make the term less useful.

@AirForceJuan3 well if your just starting to read foucault and have not read other philosophers etc i would recommend purchasing a book that is about foucault that summarizes or condenses is works...a good starting book would be Understanding Foucault....i dont recommend reading his texts inicially because they are dense and his way of composing is very tangled/intrinsic/complex etc.

@erlihs.7994 6 лет назад

In my opinion the part where says that a state has the upper hand in power if it has 'a better story' is not a soft power. It sounds more like propaganda, which is something different from the soft power. Am I right? Does anyone have the same opinion or am I completely wrong?

@streamfan6825 6 лет назад

Soft Power is absolutely nothing but Propoganda...lol...

@AirForceJuan3 14 лет назад

@ToniSkit I've just bought a book that among other things is about Foucault... Sounds interesting. Do you happen to know any book, documentary or something else about his work?

The only fear i have in the 21st century.. is the fear created by military industrial complex and greedy politicians in the developed countries, they will the one that create fear through greedy politicians as their puppets/spokesmen- woman. We will see exploding of research in military technologies and exploding in military hardware business, making the top 1% richer and richer, especially in the military industry

@delatroy 14 лет назад

he seems to have a really simple concept of power

@freezingbeast 14 лет назад

@delatroy In political science, there is a very defined definition of "power" and because he is a historian, it is reasonable to assume that he is referring to power (political science).

@timcb001 13 лет назад

@Issphitikozs He is referring to basic psychology of motivation. Carrots and sticks. This is otherwise known as rewards and punishments as motivation.

@logossfera 14 лет назад

@fitobcnfito The concentration of power was created by the politicians that convinced people that state must be strong and that people can have their cake (free market) and eat it too (social assistance, "free education" etc). Once the politicians got enough power to screw things up, they did. The solution is for the state NOT to have the power to screw things up. You cannot think that the government is the solution to the problem of government, can you?

Economically yes, but politically and militarily they flexing their muscles. This year alone, they've gotten into diplomatic rows and military standoffs with the Philippines and Vietnam over control of the South China Sea AND with Japan over the Senkoku Islands. In the past, they've had hostilities with all the South China Sea nations. The government propaganda machine makes it look like all the other countries are at fault, making the public anxious for the military to prove its superiority.

@stephentsang2000 11 лет назад

When a term becomes to "inclusive" to encompass too many things of different nature, it will become over-abstractive and over-generalized to be useful. It will end up as obstrusive as the useless and notorious term "zeitgeist", of which scholars like to play with as to show off how "profound" the knowledge they possess. It's kinda like the notorious law makers who like to make simple things complicated so that they could monopolize the trade and make their services costly~

@InTheSticks1881 "how our current monetary system is slowly destroying us" I couldn't agree more, but I might have used the term: "Enslaving us" as well.

@sparklymage 14 лет назад

@WyldOrbit I think what he was arguing was that the notion of a world power is much different in the information age than it was in the 20th century and that classically speaking China would become a world power by 2050, but that way of thinking is outdated. Clearly you are thinking in an outdated fashion. For one thing, China already has an enormous amount of American corporations working there, which is something unprecedented in world history.

@AtheistSweden Redistribution of wealth and fight against actual accumulation of power, is an Anarchist claim, normally, anarchist fight together with socialist. We both fight accumulation of power in banks and corporations, but difference is that socialist believe in government as manager of those goods/means, and we believe government is useless (as said, redistribute is what I aim for, not management by a central state). Look up the CNT-Barcelona union, and who we asociate with.

@guilhermep8414 7 лет назад

I really disagree with Nye about a power transition of West to East. It’s completely misleading. Germany, for example, is one of the most developed economies of the World and one that belongs to the western traditions and backgroud. And I don't see any economic shift from germany to somewhere in Asia. Not to mention the United States.

@InTheSticks1881 The problem is concentration of power in the hands of the few, not capitalism. But free market fanatics (not as Sweden,) have allowed and helped that concentration by the only rule of market. Goverment should interfere here, and redistribute power so it's a fear situation, and real freedom

@reddick627 12 лет назад

maybe we can view this not as a power shift, but as a power diffusion. US will remain its dominance, but its power will also be balanced by the rising power such as EU, BRICs or other non-western nations. then we will see a world with fewer wars and instability.

@fitobcnfito 14 лет назад

@AtheistSweden disculpa por el inglés, gracias por la corrección. Yes I am, but to have a free society, you have to start from freedom and equality, what is not FAIR, is to have all the power accumulated in few people, and now pretend that is a freedom what so ever. You first have to take that power away from the greedy bankers and corporations, and give it away; distribution in equality is the fairest thing to do. Later on: Anarchy and freedom to trade, or not.

@fitobcnfito 14 лет назад

@logossfera No I don’t, I'm an anarchist, but in order to be fear and have real freedom and real free market, we need first to redistribute in equality the means. Right now, situation is not fear or free, and we cannot live corporations do as they will, because what they want is to concentrate even more power, and they can in the actual status quo.
