Liberalism and Its Discontents. Francis Fukuyama. Profile Books.
Francis Fukuyama's Liberalism and Its Discontents presents itself as a wilfully circumspect volume by a leading political-intellectual figure on the world stage.
Fukuyama has much to be circumspect about. He charged onto the world stage in 1989, as a 34-year-old rising academic, with his famous essay "'The End of History?" in the informatively named journal The National Interest.
