THE GLOBAL BESTSELLER. STILL AS RELEVANT TODAY. 20th anniversary
edition of The End of History and the Last Man, a landmark of
political philosophy by Francis Fukuyama, author of The Origins of
Political Order 'A fascinating historical and philosophical setting
for the twenty-first century' - Tom Wolfe 'Was Francis Fukuyama the
first man to see Trump coming?' - Paul Sagar 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,
Frances Fukuyama examined what had just happened and then
speculated what was going to come next. Tackling religious
fundamentalism, politics, scientific progress, ethical codes and
war, The End of History and the Last Man remains a compelling work
to this day, provoking argument and debate among its readers.
'Awesome . . . a landmark . . . profoundly realistic and important
. . . supremely timely and cogent . . . the first book to fully
fathom the depth and range of the changes now sweeping through the
world' - George Gilder, The Washington Post 'A basic rule of
intellectual life is that celebrity destroys quality ... Francis
Fukuyama is a glorious exception to this rule' - The Economist
Francis Fukuyama was born in Chicago in 1952. His work includes
America at the Crossroads: Democracy, Power, and the
Neoconservative Legacy and After the Neo Cons: Where the Right went
Wrong. He now lives in Washington D.C. with his wife and children,
where he also works as a part time photographer.
