Moises Naim Biography

Moisés Naím is one of the most widely read columnists in the Spanish language. His weekly columns on world affairs are published by the main newspapers in Latin America as well as by El País in Spain and La Repubblica in Italy. In 2011, he received the Ortega y Gasset Prize , the most prestigious award in Spanish journalism.

Naím is a Distinguished Fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in Washington, DC and is the director and host of Efecto Naím , a weekly television program on international issues broadcast in the United States and Latin America on NTN24/DirecTV as well as on several national channels in different countries. In 2013, Naím was included by the British magazine Prospect in the list of the most prominent intellectuals in the world and has been recognized as a “global thought leader” by the Gottlieb Duttweiler Institute in Switzerland.

Before joining the Carnegie Endowment in 2010, Naím served as editor of Foreign Policy magazine for fourteen years . During that time, the magazine was relaunched and won the National Magazine Award for General Excellence three times, and is now considered one of the most influential publications of its kind in the world.

Dr. Naím is the author of numerous academic articles and more than ten books on economics and international politics. Both the Financial Times and the Washington Post selected one of his books, The End of Power: Sinking Companies, Defeated Militaries, Resigning Popes, and Impotent Governments—How Power Is No Longer What It Used To Be , as one of the best books of the year (2013). Bill Clinton commented that this book “will change the way you read the news, the way you think about politics, and the way you look at the world,” and Fernando Henrique Cardoso said, “Those who already have power—or aspire to it—should read this book.” His previous book, Illicit: How Traffickers, Smugglers, and Pirates Are Changing the World (2005), published in 18 languages, was selected as one of the best books of the year by the Washington Post and served as the basis for a documentary produced by National Geographic .

Naím also has experience in the public sector, having served as Minister of Industry and Commerce of Venezuela in the early 1990s, director of the Central Bank of Venezuela, and Executive Director of the World Bank. He was also academic director and professor of business and economics at IESA in Caracas.

Naím is founder and president of the Group of Fifty (G50) and a member of the boards of several companies.

Moisés Naím received his master's and doctorate degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and in 2013, American University awarded him an honorary doctorate. In April 2020, he was elected Honorary Member of the Venezuelan Academy of Economic Sciences.
