An excellent history of twentieth century ideologies and their impact on the world. With discussions of thinkers and groups that highlights the connections between ideas and events, this book is emblematic of the author's breadth of knowledge. Gertrude Himmelfarb praises his ability to analyze totalitarianism and utopianism. Conquest is a historian and author of The Great Terror, an exhaustively detailed study of the many depravities of the era of Stalin in the Soviet Union. He is a determined anticommunist, and resolutely against much muddled, socialistic thinking, including recycling, affirmative action, and political correctness. He proposes that the Englishspeaking countries band together in a commonwealth, to promote the principles of justice and democracy. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
