Hi Mister, They wrote "shifts and... changes", so I thought it must have another meaning for shifts or like it seems from your reply it is mean the same thing as "change" ?

Yes, the same meaning here, really. The writer wants you to think of changes from one power to another as well as simple changes in powerfulness.
