I recently finished reading The Dictator's Handbook, and I highly recommend it. The book provides an excellent overview of power structure dynamics in the context of both governments and businesses. It tracks historical examples and shows how understanding the economics of power enables retention of power. In order to secure freedom against those who would centralize power to themselves, I think it's essential to spread understanding of power economics. Start with yourself and help build a better world.
CGP Grey has also put together a great video presenting a few of the book's most important points, which is how I became aware of the book itself:
