Identity
Currently in Bill Gates's bookbag and FT Books of 2018<BR><BR>Increasingly, the demands of identity direct the world's politics. Nation, religion, sect, race, ethnicity, gender: these categories have overtaken broader, inclusive ideas of who we are. We have built walls rather than bridges. The result: increasing in anti-immigrant sentiment, rioting on college campuses, and the return of open white supremacy to our politics. <BR><BR>In 2014, Francis Fukuyama wrote that American and global institutions were in a state of decay, as the state was captured by powerful interest groups. Two years later, his predictions were borne out by the rise to power of a series of political outsiders whose economic nationalism and authoritarian tendencies threatens to destabilise the entire international order. These populist nationalists seek direct charismatic connection to 'the people', who are usually defined in narrow identity terms that offer an irresistible call to an in-group and exclude large parts of the population as a whole.<BR><BR>Identity is an urgent and necessary book: a sharp warning that unless we forge a universal understanding of human dignity, we will doom ourselves to continual conflict.

Political Order and Political Decay
The second volume of the bestselling landmark work on the history of the modern state<BR><BR>Writing in The Wall Street Journal, David Gress called Francis Fukuyama's Origins of Political Order "magisterial in its learning and admirably immodest in its ambition." In The New York Times Book Review, Michael Lind described the book as "a major achievement by one of the leading public intellectuals of our time." And in The Washington Post, Gerard DeGrott exclaimed "this is a book that will be remembered. Bring on volume two."<BR> Volume two is finally here, completing the most important work of political thought in at least a generation. Taking up the essential question of how societies develop strong, impersonal, and accountable political institutions, Fukuyama follows the story from the French Revolution to the so-called Arab Spring and the deep dysfunctions of contemporary American politics. He examines the effects of corruption on governance, and why some societies have been successful at rooting it out. He explores the different legacies of colonialism in Latin America, Africa, and Asia, and offers a clear-eyed account of why some regions have thrived and developed more quickly than others. And he boldly reckons with the future of democracy in the face of a rising global middle class and entrenched political paralysis in the West.<BR> A sweeping, masterful account of the struggle to create a well-functioning modern state, Political Order and Political Decay is destined to be a classic.

Political Order and Political Decay
In The Origins of Political Order, Francis Fukuyama took us from the dawn of mankind to the French and American Revolutions. Here, he picks up the thread again in the second instalment of his definitive account of mankind's emergence as a political animal.<BR><BR>This is the story of how state, law and democracy developed after these cataclysmic events, how the modern landscape - with its uneasy tension between dictatorships and liberal democracies - evolved and how in the United States and in other developed democracies, unmistakable signs of decay have emerged. <BR><BR>If we want to understand the political systems that dominate and order our lives, we must first address their origins - in our own recent past as well as in the earliest systems of human government. Fukuyama argues that the key to successful government can be reduced to three key elements: a strong state, the rule of law and institutions of democratic accountability.<BR><BR>This magisterial account is required reading for anyone wishing to know more about mankind's greatest achievements.

The Origins of Political Order
Nations are not trapped by their pasts, but events that happened hundreds or even thousands of years ago continue to exert huge influence on present-day politics. If we are to understand the politics that we now take for granted, we need to understand its origins. <BR><BR>Francis Fukuyama examines the paths that different societies have taken to reach their current forms of political order. This book starts with the very beginning of mankind and comes right up to the eve of the French and American revolutions, spanning such diverse disciplines as economics, anthropology and geography.

Liberalism and Its Discontents
A TIMES BEST PHILOSOPHY & IDEAS BOOK OF 2022<BR><BR>A defence of liberalism by the renowned political philosopher<BR><BR>'We need more thinkers as wise as Fukuyama digging their fingers into the soil of our predicament' The New York Times<BR><BR>'A brilliantly acute summary of the way some aspects of liberal thought have consumed themselves' Guardian<BR><BR>'One of the West's most interesting public intellectuals' Times<BR><BR>'Hard to think of a better case for liberal centrism' FT<BR><BR>Liberalism - the comparatively mild-mannered sibling to the more ardent camps of nationalism and socialism - has never been so divisive as today. From Putin's populism, the Trump administration and autocratic rulers in democracies the world over, it has both thrived and failed under identity politics, authoritarianism, social media and a weakened free press the world over.<BR><BR>Since its inception following the post-Reformation wars, liberalism has come under attack from conservatives and progressives alike, and today is dismissed by many as an 'obsolete doctrine'. In this brilliant and concise exposition, Francis Fukuyama sets out the cases for and against its classical premises: observing the rule of law, independence of judges, means over ends, and most of all, tolerance.<BR><BR>Pithy, to the point, and ever pertinent, this is political dissection at its very best.

Der letzte Mensch
Auf welche Weltordnung steuern wir zu? Die liberale Demokratie steckt in der Krise, nach einer langen Phase der Demokratisierung sind wir wieder in einer Welt der Macht angelangt, bedingt vor allem durch autoritäre Bewegungen, technologischen Wandel, Neoliberalismus und Identitätspolitik. Mit seinen Gedanken zur Lage der Welt zeigt Francis Fukuyama, warum das freiheitliche Denken für die westlichen Gesellschaften im 21. Jahrhundert alternativlos ist. Vor allem aber macht er deutlich, warum wir für die Freiheit kämpfen müssen, wollen wir ihr Überleben sichern und das Risiko einer autoritären Weltordnung eindämmen. Ein inspirierend persönliches Buch mit politischer Weitsicht, von einem der einflussreichsten Denker unserer Zeit.

Liberalism and Its Discontents
A short book about the challenges to liberalism from the right and the left by the bestselling author of The Origins of Political Order.<BR><BR>Classical liberalism is in a state of crisis. Developed in the wake of Europe's wars over religion and nationalism, liberalism is a system for governing diverse societies, which is grounded in fundamental principles of equality and the rule of law. It emphasizes the rights of individuals to pursue their own forms of happiness free from encroachment by government.<BR><BR>It's no secret that liberalism didn't always live up to its own ideals. In America, many people were denied equality before the law. Who counted as full human beings worthy of universal rights was contested for centuries, and only recently has this circle expanded to include women, African Americans, LGBTQ+ people, and others. Conservatives complain that liberalism empties the common life of meaning. As the renowned political philosopher Francis Fukuyama shows in Liberalism and Its Discontents, the principles of liberalism have also, in recent decades, been pushed to new extremes by both the right and the left: neoliberals made a cult of economic freedom, and progressives focused on identity over human universality as central to their political vision. The result, Fukuyama argues, has been a fracturing of our civil society and an increasing peril to our democracy.<BR><BR>In this short, clear account of our current political discontents, Fukuyama offers an essential defense of a revitalized liberalism for the twenty-first century.

D'où viennent les néo-conservateurs ?
' Menteurs ! Va-t-en guerre ! Criminels ! Hypocrites ! Réactionnaires ! Faucons ! Néo-cons !? ' Que n'a-t-on pas entendu, ces cinq dernières années, en France et dans le monde entier, sur ces fameux néo-conservateurs? Dans cet essai limpide et salutaire, avec perspicacité, mordant et humour, l'un des plus grands intellectuels de notre époque met à mal toutes les idées reçues et s'interroge sur la nature profonde de cette idéologie complexe et cohérente. S'écartant des vaines polémiques qui, dans la tourmente actuelle, en brouillent la compréhension, Francis Fukuyama retrace la généalogie du mouvement de pensée qui a présidé aux plus grands changements que les Etats-Unis ont connus depuis vingt ans. Pour la première fois, avec cet ouvrage, les origines intellectuelles du ' néo-conservatisme ' sont clairement exposées. Car ce courant est d'abord l'émanation de toute une génération de philosophes et d'universitaires américains, tels Irving Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, Albert Wohlstetter ou encore Daniel Bell, réunis, à l'origine, par un anti-stalinisme virulent et la révolte contre la guerre du Vietnam, et nourris à la philosophie hégélienne telle que la leur a transmise leur maître Léo Strauss. Longtemps à l'arrière-plan, ils participèrent néanmoins activement à la refonte de l'idéologie politique américaine sous l'ère Reagan. Fukuyama démontre brillamment que la pensée néo-conservatrice, déformée par les pires malentendus, est en réalité profondément et essentiellement morale: contre les ' réalistes ', contre les ' isolationnistes ', elle cherche à redéfinir la place et le devoir des Etats-Unis dans le monde après la chute de l'Empire soviétique et à l'heure du terrorisme global. Un livre capital pour comprendre l'Amérique d'aujourd'hui à notre monde d'aujourd'hui.

State Building
Weak or failed states - where no government is in control - are the source of many of the world's most serious problems, from poverty, AIDS and drugs to terrorism. What can be done to help? The problem of weak states and the need for state-building has existed for many years, but it has been urgent since September 11 and Afghanistan and Iraq. <BR><BR>The formation of proper public institutions, such as an honest police force, uncorrupted courts, functioning schools and medical services and a strong civil service, is fraught with difficulties. We know how to help with resources, people and technology across borders, but state building requires methods that are not easily transported. The ability to create healthy states from nothing has suddenly risen to the top of the world agenda. State building has become a crucial matter of global security. In this hugely important book, Francis Fukuyama explains the concept of state-building and discusses the problems and causes of state weakness and its national and international effects.
