Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: Good. No Dust Jacket. First English Edition. "There is no question of the depth or of the luminous quality of the reasoning with which [the author] combats the deification of the State and demolishes the Hegelian conception of the State as 'an end in itself'. I welcome this book as a contribution of outstan…ding value to the clarification of thought at a moment of supreme crisis in the political history of the world. Its author believes that against the 'totalitarian State' the ideal and the faith of "totalitarian man' will arise and prevail, and that 'the blackest cloud which has overshadowed the history of humanity is beginning to pass away." - Introduction. "The object [of this book] is to introduce clarity into the confusion of demagogy and lying which to-day so obscures the grave problems of our time that even politicians can only with difficulty recognise the forces and ideas which underlie the events and changes of our day. Further, it attempts to indicate to all men of good will a way into a better and clearer future out of the labyrinth of unsolved problems which vex our age." - Preface. "Richard von Coudenhove-Kalergi (1894-1972) was a politician and philosopher. A pioneer of European integration, he served as the founding president of the Paneuropean Union for 49 years. His Pan-Europeanism earned vivid loathing from Adolf Hitler, who excoriated its pacifism and mechanical economism and belittled its founder as 'a bastard.' Nazi criticism and propaganda against Coudenhove-Kalergi, and his European worldview, would decades later form the basis of the Kalergi Plan conspiracy theory which claims he [conceived of] a plot to mix and replace white Europeans with other races via immigration." - Wikipedia. [4]-196 pp. Translated from the German. Unmarked with average wear and soiling to original dark maroon cloth lettered and decorated in gilt. Binding intact. Slight bow to back board. No dust jacket. A sound example. ; 8vo.
