Synopsis
The publication of The Dragons of Expectation in 2005 reaffirmed Robert Conquest's stature as a leading intellectual and one of the world's great humanists. In the tradition of Isaiah Berlin's The Crooked Timber of Humanity and George Orwell's Essays, this book brilliantly traces how seductive ideas have come to corrupt modern minds; to often disastrous effects. In what Publishers Weekly called "a frontal assault on the pieties of the left," Conquest masterfully examines how false nostrums have infected academia, politicians, and the public, showing how their reliance on "isms" and the destructive concepts of "People, Nation, and Masses" have resulted in a ruinous cycle of turbulence and war. Including fresh analyses of Russia's October Revolution, World War II, and the Cold War, The Dragons of Expectation is one of the most important contributions to modern thought in recent years.

Etat : Aceptable. : En 'The Dragons of Expectation', Robert Conquest ofrece una defensa de la civilización, iluminando las degradaciones políticas y los fetichismos intelectuales del mundo moderno. El libro examina cómo ideas seductoras han corrompido las mentes modernas, a menudo con efectos desastrosos. Conquest analiza cómo falsos dogmas han infectado la academia, los políticos y el público, mostrando cómo su dependencia de 'ismos' y los conceptos destructivos de 'Pueblo, Nación y Masas' han resultado en un ciclo ruinoso de turbulencias y guerra. Incluye análisis de la Revolución de Octubre en Rusia, la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Guerra Fría. EAN: 9780393327595 Tipo: Libros Categoría: Historia Título: The Dragons of Expectation Autor: Robert Conquest Editorial: W. W. Norton & Company Idioma: en-US Páginas: 272 Formato: tapa blanda.
