With the fall of Berlin Wall in 1989 the threat of the Cold War which had dominated the second half of the twentieth century vanished. And with it the West looked to the future with optimism but renewed uncertainty. The End of History and the Last Man was the first book to offer a picture of what the new century would look like.
Boldly outlining the challenges and problems to face modern liberal democracies, Francis Fukuyama examined what had just happened and predicted what was coming next. Now updated with a new afterword, Fukuyama shows how the central issue today remains the same. Have any political and economic models arisen that could challenge liberal democracy as the best way of organizing human societies? He remains unconvinced.
Tackling religious fundamentalism, politics, scientific progress, ethical codes and war, The End of History and the Last Man is as compelling today as it was when it was written - and just as provocative too. 'Awesome . .

Описание: Writing in "The Wall Street Journal," David Gress called Francis Fukuyama's" Origins of Political Order" "magisterial in its learning and admirably immodest in its ambition." In "The New York Times Book Review," Michael Lind described the book as "a major achievement by one of the leading public intellectuals of our time." And in "The Washington Post," Gerard DeGrott exclaimed that, "this is a book that will be remembered. Bring on volume two."Volume two is finally here, completing the most important work of political thought in at least a generation. Taking up the essential question of how societies develop strong, impersonal, and accountable political institutions, Fukuyama follows the story from the French Revolution to the so-called Arab Spring and the deep dysfunctions of contemporary American politics. He examines the effects of corruption on governance, and why some societies have been successful at rooting it out. He explores the different legacies of colonialism in Latin America, Africa, and Asia, and offers a clear-eyed account of why some regions have thrived and developed more quickly than others . And he boldly reckons with the future of democracy in the face of a rising global middle class and entrenched political paralysis in the West.A sweeping, masterful account of the struggle to create a well-functioning modern state, "Political Order and Political Decay" is destined to be a classic.
