inquiry reside within the allegedly enlightened institutions of state and corporation. In

Reason demonstrates its crucial importance to a truly democratic politics, rather than a
political performance in which we remain merely spectators.

Rezension zu „The Threat to Reason: How the Enlightenment Was Hijacked and How We Can Reclaim It “
"Fine, lucid and sharp...well written and worth reading before the next wave ofwestern tanks crosses a border, somewhere in the Middle East." The Sunday Times
"Hind's The Threat to Reason is in the tradition of those great works that ask big
and fundamental, yet curiously unexamined, questions. It is a profound and
much-needed contribution." Joel Bakan, author of The Corporation
