Increasingly, the demands of identity direct the world's politics. Nation, religion, sect, race, ethnicity, gender: these categories have overtaken broader, inclusive ideas of who we are. We have built walls rather than bridges. The result: increasing in anti-immigrant sentiment, rioting on college campuses, and the return of open white supremacy to our politics.
In 2014, Francis Fukuyama wrote that American and global institutions were in a state of decay, as the state was captured by powerful interest groups. Two years later, his predictions were borne out by the rise to power of a series of political outsiders whose economic nationalism and authoritarian tendencies threatens to destabilise the entire international order. These populist nationalists seek direct charismatic connection to 'the people', who are usually defined in narrow identity terms that offer an irresistible call to an in-group and exclude large parts of the population as a whole.
Identity is an urgent and necessary book: a sharp warning that unless we forge a universal understanding of human dignity, we will doom ourselves to continual conflict.
条理清晰易懂的写作。第二张“the third part of the the soul”中从心理学角度分析身份政治的部分很有趣
评分经济学家始料未及的是:历史终结之后,自由民主无法解决“优越感”的问题。2010s以来,意识形态政治让位给了身份政治,左派的LGBT,黑人民权运动,米兔等等与右派民族主义民粹主义等等同构地寻求外界对于尊严,内在自我的承认。柏拉图认为,人类在欲望和理性之外还有thymos的存在,而identity不同于thymos的是其起源于现代性,对于本真性和inner self的诉求。欧洲第一个追求inner self的自然是马丁路德及其新教教徒对于天主教会的抵抗。而康德则将此世俗化,认为人们可以通过道德判断订立契约。 福山认为“身份政治”无法避免,他的解决方法在于一方面是通过identity创造更大意义上的认同,一个新保守主义版的欧盟。另一方面则是亨廷顿的“信条国家”,将宗教信条置换为现代的世俗版本。
评分此书又可名《How nationalist right prevails over leftist parties》。
