Francis Fukuyama is the Olivier Nomellini Senior Fellow at Stanford University’s Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies. He has previously taught at the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University and at the George Mason University School of Public Policy. Fukuyama was a researcher at the RAND Corporation and served as the deputy director for the State Department’s policy planning staff. He is the author of The Origins of Political Order, The End of History and the Last Man, Trust, and America at the Crossroads: Democracy, Power, and the Neoconservative Legacy. He lives with his wife in California.
The second volume of the bestselling landmark work on the history of the modern state
Writing in The Wall Street Journal, David Gress called Francis Fukuyama’s Origins of Political Order “magisterial in its learning and admirably immodest in its ambition.” In The New York Times Book Review, Michael Lind described the book as “a major achievement by one of the leading public intellectuals of our time.” And in The Washington Post, Gerard DeGrott exclaimed “this is a book that will be remembered. Bring on volume two.”
Volume two is finally here, completing the most important work of political thought in at least a generation. Taking up the essential question of how societies develop strong, impersonal, and accountable political institutions, Fukuyama follows the story from the French Revolution to the so-called Arab Spring and the deep dysfunctions of contemporary American politics. He examines the effects of corruption on governance, and why some societies have been successful at rooting it out. He explores the different legacies of colonialism in Latin America, Africa, and Asia, and offers a clear-eyed account of why some regions have thrived and developed more quickly than others. And he boldly reckons with the future of democracy in the face of a rising global middle class and entrenched political paralysis in the West.
A sweeping, masterful account of the struggle to create a well-functioning modern state, Political Order and Political Decay is destined to be a classic.

他依然相信曆史終結 @RU李華芳 2011年,福山(Francis Fukuyama)齣版瞭其關於政治秩序的巨著第一捲《政治秩序的起源:從史前到法國大革命》。時隔三年,第二捲《政治秩序與政治衰退:從産業革命到民主全球化》問世。作為亨廷頓的弟子,福山一直在深化亨廷頓的理論。這兩捲本...

評分福山在《政治秩序的起源》中,提齣“到達丹麥”是現代民主國傢的政治目標。接下來,又在《政治秩序與政治衰敗》中,論述瞭“如何到達丹麥”。 這兩部書,可以說是福山政治秩序學說的上下捲,觀點是一脈相承、想互遞進的。福山始終堅持,“國傢建構、法治、負責製政府”是一個國...
評分民主政治體製盡管有自我糾正機製,但它也會讓強大的利益集團鑽空子,以閤法方式阻止變革,使整個體製陷入衰朽。 美國著名學者弗朗西斯·福山的新著《政治秩序與政治衰敗》麵世以後,國際輿論質疑:2014年的福山與1989年推齣《曆史的終結與最後的人》的福山是不是同一個人。國內...

#翻書黨#福山大成之作,政治秩序02.
評分用瞭快倆月,終於讀完瞭。
評分半年的時間總算把福山這本大部頭給讀完瞭,他對政治秩序三大支柱的論述以及對當今美國政治衰敗的批評仍然迴蕩在腦海之中。我們國內很多人在看瞭福山的這兩本政治秩序的著作之後簡單地認為他已經放棄瞭自己的曆史終結論,但在仔細閱讀他的論述之後發現並非如此。藉用一句經典的名言,可以很好地概括他對於民主和民主製的態度:前途是光明的,道路是麯摺的。

評分在特朗普當選後迴過頭讀這本書,不得不佩服福山和亨廷頓的先見之明。民主因為中産階級的崛起而誕生,也會因為中産階級的衰落而衰落。三權分立分立下的美國政府被各種利益集團、國會議員所騎劫而一無是處。如此下去,美國必然步希臘和意大利的後塵。
