In this bold new follow-up to Confronting Leviathan, David Runciman
unmasks modern politics and reveals the great men and women of ideas
behind it.
What can Samuel Butler's ideas teach us about the oddity of how we
choose to organise our societies? How did Frederick Douglass not only
expose the horrors of slavery, but champion a new approach to
abolishing it? Why should we tolerate snobbery, betrayal and hypocrisy,
as Judith Shklar suggested? And what does Friedrich Nietzsche predict
for our future?
From Rousseau to Rawls, fascism to feminism and pleasure to anarchy,
this is a mind-bending tour through the history of ideas which will
forever change your view of politics today.
