- At Central European University in Budapest, Harvard University's Joseph Nye discussed his overarching concept of global power in light of the new challenges of the information age. Nye, with a decades-long career in public and academic service, stressed that changes in communication and changes in the global balance of economic power, especially between the US and China, are not to be feared, but will require increased cooperation in a multipolar world.

We continue to engage in conflict over the control of territory and particularly over the natural resources to be gained by territorial control. Thus, despite the information age, and despite the expansion of social-democracy as the form of government shared by a significant number of nation-states, the dynamic of nation-state power has not changed greatly from the past. The formation of the United Nations, for example, has not prevented almost continuous wars between regional neighbors since the end of the Second World War. Where invasion of the territory of one people by another is not a practical strategy, the solution is to channel sufficient funds to a country's leaders to obtain resource extraction privileges at far below the full market rents that should be charged. This is colonialism barely disguised.
In response to Professor Nye's suggestion that the power of a society is measured by "per capita income" I would counter that the real measure is that offered by the philosopher Mortimer J. Adler. This is whether the entire population of a society has access to the goods of a decent human existence. The number of societies where this condition exists is small indeed. Neither China nor the United States meet this test.
The historical record shows that societies with extreme levels of inequality have not survived.

So interesting
Wouldn't u want to mix subtle power with smart power?
Life is too short to love and I don't understand How and Why people find time to Hate, Quarrel Or Kill the innocent for none of their fault.
Soft power is not a form of power, it is a form of submission. There are only three ways to get someone to submit. Voluntarily, through trade, or through coercion. What he calls “soft power” is voluntary submission.
Joseph Nye overestimates American soft power, a major component of American soft power is economic opportunity. Today, many other nations offer economic opportunities to both their citizens and foreigners. He talks about educational opportunities, but the lock down of America after 9/11 showed that other nations (in Europe) can offer the same opportunities with less hassle.
He hasn't realised the World is about to produce the first "post-American" generation in fifty years.
29:00 China's multi-billion dollar soft power investment
29:05 If you can increase your soft power commensurately with your hard power, you’ll appear friendly to neighbors.
29:48 China has a problem projecting soft power; often doing things that undercuts it because of their authoritarian system. American soft power comes from Hollywood to Harvard (civil society).
35:30 Power is the ability to get the outcomes we want. Instead of power over others, sometimes you can do it with power with others-via co-operation.
it's very simple,if you abide by absolte JUSTICE you'll rule the World forever

But Satan whispered evil suggestions to him. He said, ‘O Adam, shall I lead thee to the tree of eternity, and to a kingdom that never decays?
Then they both ate thereof, so that their shame became manifest to them, and they began to cover themselves with the leaves of the garden. And Adam observed not the commandment of his Lord, so his life became miserable. *Quran*

The amount of uneducated in the comment section is hard to believe
So is your use of English; "amount" is not the correct word in that context.

He also believes that only Americans can lead the World in innovation. Well, the Victorians thought that way, until Germans and upstarts across the Atlantic starting innovating.
He will be shocked to see innovation coming from the least likely of places in the next few decades.
He hasn't also dealt with the possibility of a more open and democratic China.
