But by this logic, institutions are most likely to be dominated by narcissistic paranoid psychopaths, no? So maybe what is needed to constrain the dark side of the human condition is a reduction in the power of institutions...

Amazing. This has been a clear challenge in the modern State, but it becomes a more complex challenge in times of hyper-connected society. Facing current challenges with institutions designed a couple of centuries ago is a problem. We need new institutional architectures.

What happens when institutions start to display those traits? Charities, the UN etc?
-
Clinton Foundation. 90+ percent overhead costs, less than 10% going to charity. UN against our interest, why should we fund them? Good examples
-
Spot on. Institutions never finish the project they represent and never disband themselves. Most exist for the benefit of themselves,not their championed cause. FIFA, the IOC, many "charities" are like the Clinton Con, then we get onto religions.... not today though......

This is an interesting piece, but the author also seems overly focused on explaining social systems as manifestations of personality disorders. I think a better focus (implied in the piece - not contradictory) would be the structural incentives that attract these kinds of people

That's good, but he omits the most important safeguard in the American system: Diffuse power structures. States independent of Federal government, Federal government divided into three co-equal branches, etc.
