Biographie de l'auteur :
John Ralston Saul is the International President of PEN International, an essayist, novelist, and long-time champion of freedom of expression. His works have been translated into twenty-three languages in thirty countries, are widely taught in universities, and central to the debate over contemporary society in many countries. They include the philosophical trilogy: Voltaire's Bastards: The Dictatorship of Reason in the West, The Doubter's Companion, The Unconscious Civilization, and its conclusion, On Equilibrium. In The Collapse of Globalism, he predicted today's economic crisis. In the autumn of 2012, he published his first novel in fifteen years, Dark Diversions: A Traveller’s Tale, a picaresque novel about the life of modern nouveaux riches.

His awards include South Korea’s Manhae Grand Prize for Literature, the Pablo Neruda Medal, Canada’s Governor General’s Literary Award for Nonfiction, the inaugural Gutenberg Galaxy Award for Literature, and Italy's Premio Letterario Internazionale. He is a Companion in the Order of Canada and a Chevalier in the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of France. He is the recipient of seventeen honorary degrees.

From the publisher: "Knowledge, The Enlightenment believed, could protect us from the follies of ideology. But Saul maintains that 'knowing' has not made us 'conscious'. Instead we have become increadingly passive, our society increadingly conformist. These are no easy solutions to this problem, Saul say, but change is still possible."

Description du livre Trade Paperback. Etat : New. 5th or later Edition. New For More Information On Condition. Please See All Photos John Ralston Saul Argues That While Fascism Was Defeated In World War Ii, Its "Corporatist" Doctrines Powerfully Influence Our Own Society Today. Saul Explores How These Corporatist Priorities Have Now Become So Woven Into Our Social Fabric That They Threaten The Practice Of Western Democracy. Our Civic Order, Saul Argues, Has Been Remade To Serve The Needs Of Business Managers And Technocrats. In Turn, Other Parts Of Society Have Come To Mimic This Arrangement As They Themselves Fracture Into Competing Interest Groups And Ethnic Blocs, Virtually Eliminating The Role Of The Citizen. This Largely Unseen Social Order Has Deep And Vexing Roots In Western Thought. Saul Examines How This Structure Is Bolstered Today By Political And Intellectual Charlatans Who Misleadingly Describe It As A "Common Sense" Arrangement, Rather Than What It Is: An Insidious War Of Attrition Against The Individual As Citizen And The Delicate System Of Open Dialogue And Doubt That Alone Guarantees The Future Of Democracy.
