Produktinformationen zu „To Fight Against This Age “
A poignant meditation on our modern predicament: the rise, once again, of barbarism in the midst of mass democracy.
Klappentext zu „To Fight Against This Age “
Thomas Mann and Albert Camus understood something many political scientists still find difficult to fathom. Deprived of any coherent theory, fascism is characterised by its politics of resentment, stirring up of anger and fear, xenophobia, need for scapegoats, and by its hatred of the life of the mind. Combining a knowledge of history and philosophy, Rob Riemen eloquently explores the global return of fascism, disguised in the false promises of freedom and greatness. Riemens own response to the spiritual crisis of our age is a moving story about the universal meaning of European humanism, with its values of truth, justice, beauty and love for life as the origin of a democratic civilisation. To Fight Against This Age belongs to that category of books that are as timely as they are timeless: to be read by those who want to understand and change the world in which they live.
