This book is a very interesting expose of the Liberalist dogma right from its ancient Roman beginnings to today’s western identity. Largely focused on the happenings in Europe, this book highlights the long history of omissions and commissions........      fuente

Read several books on Mossad, the omnipotent Israeli intelligence service. But this one, ‘Rise and Kill First’ by journalist Ronen Bergman is markedly different. It doesn’t romanticise, not does it portray the agency as superhuman and invincible.      fuente

The Lessons of Tragedy book cover
The Lessons of Tragedy
Statecraft and World Order
Hal Brands - 2019-02-26
Calificación de Goodreads
"The Lessons of Tragedy" is a powerful reminder to draw on the lessons of the past to address current threats to international order. The authors delve into the ancient Greek's approach of creating a communal sense of responsibility and courage by looking disaster directly in the face. The book argues that today's society has lost touch with tragedy, forgetting that violence and war have been all too common throughout human history. This poignant argument is a call to action for America and its allies to regain an appreciation of tragedy before it's too late.

Interesting book passionately arguing for the US to reacquire ‘tragic sensibility’, meaning, it should be ready to lead the struggles for maintaining a peaceful, liberal and democratic international order irrespective of the costs involved.      fuente

Nervous States
Democracy and the Decline of Reason
William Davies - 2020-02-18 (publicado por primera vez en 2018)
Calificación de Goodreads
"Nervous States" by William Davies explores the impact of feeling over fact on democracies and why politics has become so fractious and warlike. As emotions supplant facts in our politics due to the spread of media technology and intrusion of mass shootings and terrorist attacks, we lose our ability to find consensus. This provocative and insightful book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the turbulent times we currently live in.

Just completed this interesting book. Interesting because in a sophisticated manner it tries to suggest that once-a-holy-idea of democracy is no longer a truthful institution and post-truth influence is what drives global democratic politics today.      fuente
