Presented here is a condensed translation of Alexander Rustow's
three-volume Ortsbestimmung der Gegenwart. This monumental work was
widely acclaimed by critics throughout Europe as a major
contribution to both historical and sociological scholarship.
Recognized as one of the foremost exponents of neoliberal thought,
and thus as one of the intellectual authors of West Germany's
economic miracle," Rustow--in his magnum opus--tried to determine
what social patterns and trends of thought enhance the human
condition and what other patterns and trends lead to repression and
barbarism.
Originally published in 1981.
