Lmfao Though, it is yet to be seen if he was wrong. Just because we are trying to “non liberal, non democratic nations” doesn’t mean he was wrong. Those people could be wrong in this new way. We shall see

my contrarian opinion is that he was actually right. his book was quite complex argument in reality and even if the entire world order collapsed into anarchy it wouldn't actually prove his argument wrong

Confession: I haven’t read it. Every time I look at it it seems daunting. Read enough summaries to get the high level but I may be missing the nuances.

Thank you the share! Matches a lot of ideas from a book DWR recommended to me “Machiavellians: Defenders of Freedom” by James Burnham. Though, I wonder how he feels about the cycle. Does it still end up back in liberal democracy after “restarting history”?
