![]() ![]() Fake news, identity politics, corporate shame, the evil 1%, globalism, Black Lives Matter, LGBTQ+, ANTIFA, and now our shooting cultural war all stem from the clever theology of group rights ordained by German theologian Karl Marx. Scruton wants one's inference to tumble out of these pages at the end. How did the very core idea of Western culture and law change from individual natural rights, seeking only truth, to contrived group rights, seeking only power? With tong and scalpel, Scruton offers the reader a narrative answer to a simple question. Even if you don’t know the difference between a ‘dialectic’ and a ‘praxis,’ your lack of deep philosophical literacy will not impede the read. Fools, Frauds, and Firebrands, written by Roger Scruton, is precisely the book that every student of modern political science and/or economics should read. ![]()
