The Power to Act - Part 3

Chosun.com, the Korean website has written an article that focuses on the power or non-power that the current Korean president has in the ability to take action; it further wrote that the German sociologist Ulrich Beck has said the era is gone when a government, once in power, could do anything by crooking a finger, and it is an illusion to think that political power can control everything. Nothing moves by presidential power alone any more.

Chosun.com, the Korean website has written that a saying has it that the next mirror to look at your face is never far away. This article was written not with the incumbent president uppermost in mind, but with the candidates who dream of presidential power, and the public who expects too much of the president.

These are the types of questions we tackle in Satsang.
