The rise of a new Europe prompts many questions: What does it all mean? And where is it going to lead? Are we witnessing a process of dissolution without anything taking the place of the old and admittedly dismal structures? What is the market economy going to do to the social texture of the various countries of East Central Europe? Will it not make some rich while the many become poorer than ever? How can the rule of law be brought about? And what about Germany? Does the specter of a balkanized Europe dominated by the one power that is uniting rather than disintegrating give cause for alarm? In this incisive and lucid book, Sir Ralf Dahrendorf, one of Europe's most distinguished scholars and a trenchant writer, ponders these and other equally vexing questions. Dahrendorf regards what has happened in East Central Europe as a victory for neither of the social systems that once opposed each other across the Iron Curtain. Rather, he views recent events as a vote for an open society over a closed society. The continuing conundrum, he argues, which will plague peoples everywhere, will be how to balance the need for economic growth with the desire for social justice while building authentic and enduring democratic institutions. Dahrendorf's passionate essay is as timely as it is rewarding in its clarity. It is a humane, skeptical, and anti~Utopian work, a manifesto for a radical liberalism in which the social entitlements of citizenship are as important a condition of progress as the opportunities for choice. Dahrendorf's judgments are based not only on a combination of erudition, intelligence, and empathy, but also on an abiding commitment to democratic values. In a time of dizzying transformations and of malleable geopolitical realities, Reflections on the Revolution in Europe is much more than simply a guide for the perplexed~it points the way toward a new politics for the twenty~first century.
