History's Fools : The Pursuit of Idealism and the Revenge of Politics

History's Fools : The Pursuit of Idealism and the Revenge of Politics

David Martin Jones

A tale of Western liberal hubris and our failure to escape from history.

The end of the Cold War announced a new world order. Liberal democracy prevailed, ideological conflict abated, and world politics set off for the promised land of a secular, cosmopolitan, market-friendly end of history. Or so it seemed. Thirty years later, this unipolar worldview— premised on shared values, open markets, open borders and abstract social justice—lies in tatters. What happened?
