Sinopsis

Harris (moral and intellectual philosophy emeritus, Northwestern U.) applies his significant research and thought along with his 99 years on the planet to explain how the seeds sown by Thucydides and Plato were nurtured by Aristotle, Rousseau, Kant, Adam Smith, Hegel and even Marx, only to be met by anti-democratic thinkers such as Schmidt, Schumpeter, Pareto, von Hayek, Margenthau and Barber. He closely examines the influence of Leo Strauss and Milton Friedman on today's neoconservative thought and politics, and proposes a world federal process that would ensure that democracy continue and thrive. The result is an elegant, earnest and persuasive argument deeply tinted by Harris's conviction that democracy must continue or we all will be lost.
