Más información sobre el libro

Challenging traditional political and economic theories, the book argues that contemporary ideas of liberty and individualism are rooted in outdated 17th-century reasoning. Brian Ellis re-evaluates the founding of the United Nations and post-war policies, highlighting their alignment with scientific realism. He critiques prominent theorists like Rawls and Nozick, ultimately proposing a philosophy that emphasizes evidence-based economics and acknowledges historical societal differences, aiming to foster human flourishing through a more realistic understanding of societal dynamics.
