{"product_id":"9781846684371","title":"Political Order and Political Decay (2015)","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn The Origins of Political Order, Francis Fukuyama took us from the dawn of mankind to the French and American Revolutions. Here, he picks up the thread again in the second instalment of his definitive account of mankind's emergence as a political animal. This is the story of how state, law and democracy developed after these cataclysmic events, how the modern landscape—with its uneasy tension between dictatorships and liberal democracies—evolved, and how unmistakable signs of decay have emerged in the United States and other developed democracies. If we want to understand the political systems that dominate and order our lives, we must first address their origins, both in our own recent past and in the earliest systems of human government. Fukuyama argues that the key to successful government can be reduced to three elements: a strong state, the rule of law and institutions of democratic accountability. This magisterial account is essential reading for anyone wishing to learn more about mankind's greatest achievements.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bohemian Ventures, spol. s r.o.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54025369420123,"sku":"9781846684371","price":37.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1787\/2513\/files\/0678114.jpg?v=1789063985","url":"https:\/\/czechmovie.com\/de\/products\/9781846684371","provider":"czechmovie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
