Every year for over a decade, I have ventured to Innsbruck, nestled in Austria’s Tyrol region, to enlighten students at the Management Center of Innsbruck about the need to better understand goings on in Asia.

Central to the course is a grasp of how this evolution will affect the way the world works, and the accompanying changes in the instruments, rules and institutions of power, and even the nature of power itself.

Obviously, that demands an understanding of what power is. Recent developments may force me to rewrite those introductory classes.
