Abstract

De laatste vijftig jaar zijn westerse samenlevingen veranderd in informatiemaatschappijen. Kennis heeft industriële massaproductie vervangen als de basis van welvaart, macht en sociale interactie. Tegelijkertijd is de criminaliteit gestegen, hebben zich grote veranderingen voorgedaan in de gezinswaarden en is het individu belangrijker geworden. Net zoals de industriële revolutie grote gevolgen had voor de samenleving, zo heeft ook de ' grote scheuring' in de laatste helft van deze eeuw enorme veranderingen teweeggebracht in sociale structuren. Waaruit ontstaat sociale orde? En kan een balans die verstoord is weer hersteld worden? Francis Fukuyama geeft in dit boek verrassende antwoorden. Niet de kerk of de overheid legt sociale orde op, het is een biologische drijfveer van de mens om morele waarden te creëren. Fukuyama laat zien dat de grote scheuring van de jaren zestig en zeventig plaats maakt voor een reconstructie, nu in de westerse wereld een nieuw stelsel ontstaat van sociale en morele waarden die horen bij de postindustriële samenleving.

Abstract

Bestselling author Francis Fukuyama brings together esteemed academics, political analysts, and practitioners to reflect on the U.S. experience with nation-building, from its historical underpinnings to its modern-day consequences. The United States has sought on repeated occasions to reconstruct states damaged by conflict, from Reconstruction in the South after the Civil War to Japan and Germany after World War II, to the ongoing rebuilding of Iraq. Despite this rich experience, there has been remarkably little systematic effort to learn lessons on how outside powers can assist in the building of strong and self-sufficient states in post-conflict situations.The contributors dissect mistakes, false starts, and lessons learned from the cases of Afghanistan and Iraq within the broader context of reconstruction efforts in other parts of the world, including Latin America, Japan, and the Balkans. Examining the contrasting models in Afghanistan and Iraq, they highlight the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq as a cautionary example of inadequate planning. The need for post-conflict reconstruction will not cease with the end of the Afghanistan and Iraq missions. This timely volume offers the critical reflection and evaluation necessary to avoid repeating costly mistakes in the future.Contributors: Larry Diamond, Hoover Institution and Stanford University; James Dobbins, RAND; David Ekbladh, American University; Michle A.

Abstract

Taking up the essential question of how societies develop strong, impersonal, and accountable political institutions, the author 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.

Abstract

Francis Fukuyama's criticism of the Iraq war put him at odds with neoconservative friends both within and outside the Bush administration. Here he explains how, in its decision to invade Iraq, the Bush administration failed in its stewardship of American foreign policy. First, the administration wrongly made preventive war the central tenet of its foreign policy. In addition, it badly misjudged the global reaction to its exercise of & benevolent hegemony.& And finally, it failed to appreciate the difficulties involved in large-scale social engineering, grossly underestimating the difficulties involved in establishing a successful democratic government in Iraq. Fukuyama explores the contention by the Bush administration's critics that it had a neoconservative agenda that dictated its foreign policy during the president's first term. Providing a fascinating history of the varied strands of neoconservative thought since the 1930s, Fukuyama argues that the movement's legacy is a complex one that can be interpreted quite differently than it was after the end of the Cold War. Analyzing the Bush administration's miscalculations in responding to the post& September 11 challenge, Fukuyama proposes a new approach to American foreign policy through which such mistakes might be turned around& one in which the positive aspects of the neoconservative legacy are joined with a more realistic view of the way American power can be used around the world.
