DOPO LA “FINE DELLA STORIA”. IL TEMA DELL’IDENTITÀ IN FRANCIS FUKUYAMA
Contenuto principale dell'articolo
Abstract
The central themes of Francis Fukuyama’s latest books are the challanges that the liberal-democratic model he celebrated in The End of History and the Last Man (1992) has to face. The question of identity politics appears to be one of the most urgent issues and is one of the themes to which Fukuyama devotes the most attention, particularly in the works Identity (2018) and Liberalism and Its Discontents (2022). This focus shows a shift in a more realistic sense compared to the celebratory style used in The End of History. This realist note and the attention to the challenges posed to liberal democracies brings him closer, in terms of sensitivity, to his intellectual adversary and mentor Samuel P. Huntington. The Fukuyama of recent years therefore shows that he is coming to terms with his own work of the early years and with the legacy of his adversary-mentor Samuel Huntington.
