Power has always shaped human destiny—but how leaders wield it has changed across time. From tribal chiefs and pharaohs to revolutionaries, dictators, and today’s digital influencers, the psychology of power reveals why people follow, obey, resist, or rebel.

In The Psychology of Power, Tristian Hingis takes listeners on a sweeping journey through history, exploring how leaders influenced human behavior in every era:

Ancient Civilizations – Pharaohs, philosophers, and emperors who crafted myths and propaganda to legitimize rule.

The Middle Ages – Kings and popes who balanced faith and fear to command loyalty.

Revolutions and Enlightenment – Ideas that mobilized masses against monarchs and empires.

The Modern Era – Dictators, democracies, and the propaganda machines of the 20th century.

The Digital Age – How social media, algorithms, and influencers reshape persuasion and power today.

Through historical examples, psychological insights, and cultural analysis, this book reveals the timeless mechanics of influence—why we submit to authority, how persuasion rewires societies, and what makes power both dangerous and necessary.

More than history, this is a guide to understanding modern influence. Whether you are a student of psychology, a lover of history, or simply curious about how leadership shapes our world, The Psychology of Power offers clarity on the hidden forces that govern human behavior.

In an age of deepfakes, disinformation, and digital manipulation, the lessons of history have never been more urgent. Understanding power is the first step to reclaiming it.
