" Old power models tend to require little more than consumption. New power taps into people's growing capacity - and desire - to participate in ways that go beyond consumption. "
(...)
" Old power works like currency. It is held by a few. Once gained, it is jealously guarded, and the powerful have a substantial store of it to spend. It is closed, inaccessible, and leader-driven. It downloads and it captures.
New power operates differently, like a current. It is made by many. It is open, participatory, and peer-driven. It uploads, and it distributes. Like water or electricity, it's most powerful when it surges. The goal with new power is not to hoard it but to channel it. "
