Fukuyama in The Spectator

 

In The Spectator, Francis Fukiyama asks: Is the age of democracy over?  Fukiyama is the author of the seminal post Cold War book  The End of History and the Last Man in which he became a cult thinker by arguing that liberal democratic principles are the end point of any form of government.  Twenty years later — by watching Russia and most recently Ukraine – Fukiyama concludes: “We need to match those high ideals with unglamorous but steady investments in institution-building if liberal democracy is to deliver on its promises.”

Six months after the publication of Democracy Kills: What’s so good about having the Vote this debate is really hotting up.
