Liberty or Equality

Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the historical and contemporary interpretations of democracy and liberalism, arguing that they do not inherently align. It posits that democracy's quest for equality often results in collectivism and totalitarianism. Kuehnelt-Leddihn reflects on the concerns of thinkers from 1790 to 1914, who warned about the potential for totalitarianism emerging from democratic ideals. By connecting these historical insights with modern perspectives, the author provides a thorough examination of the evolution of political thought and its implications for society.
