Over two decades ago we were confronted by the end of the Soviet
Union and collapse of the geo-political divisions that had defined
much of the twentieth century. From this particular end, the end of
history was proclaimed. But is it still possible to argue that
liberal democracy and free market capitalism are the final form of
law and mode of production in human history? Recent events have
called this into question: the Arab Spring, the War on Terror,
global economic crises, and looming ecological crises. It seems
that history is far from over. Yet, the idea of the end remains,
for example, in the question of the future of the American empire,
the establishment of a new era of international law, and the
resurgence of religion as a dominant source of political
identification. This collection of essays explores the end in
various contexts, including art, politics, and the philosophy of
time and existence. In different ways, all of the essays address
emerging horizons of meaning and reality.
