Abstract:

Post-industrial society and liberal democracies are plagued by their own contradictions and conflicts. Cultural decadence is not confined to developing nations. Rise of global inequality, authoritarianism, violence, and terror mark the evil profligacy of the new bourgeois class. A brief requiem for liberalism and democracy seems in order.

Keywords:

New Leviathan; Mayhem and Gun Violence; Global Inequality; Freedom and Oppression
