Fukuyama's concept of the End of History has been one of the most
widely debated theories of international politics since the end of
the Cold War. This book discusses Fukuyama's claim that liberal
democracy alone is able to satisfy the human aspiration for freedom
and dignity, and explores the way in which his thinking is part of
a philosophical tradition which includes Kant, Hegel and Marx. Two
new chapters in this second edition discuss the ways in which
Fukuyama's thinking has developed - they include his celebrated and
controversial criticism of neoconservatism and his complex
intellectual relationship to Samuel Huntington, whose Clash of
Civilization thesis he rejects but whose notion of political decay
is central to his more recent work. The authors here argue that
Fukuyama's continuing fundamental contributions to debates
concerning the spread of democracy and threat of global terror mark
him out as one of the most important thinkers of the twenty-first
century.
