"Is it possible to identify the 500 most powerful individuals on the planet -- one in 14 million? That’s what we tried to do with the inaugural FP Power Map, our inventory of the people who control the commanding heights of the industries that run the world, from politics to high finance, media to energy, warfare to religion," the Foreign Policy magazine said.
