Two different mindsets are doing battle in today's world. Old Power Values Formal (representative) governance, managerialism, institutionalism Competition, exclusivity, resource consolidation Confidentiality, discretion, separation between private and pubic spheres Expertise, professionalism, specialization Long-term affiliation and loyalty, less overall participation New Power Values Informal (networked) governance, opt-in decision-making, self-organization Collaboration, crowd wisdom, sharing, open-sourcing Radical transparency Maker culture, "do-it ourselves" ethic Short-term conditional affiliation, more overall participation
