EMPIRE OF HATRED: A STUDY OF THE REVOLUTION is the best modern book on the progress of liberalism, and stands head and shoulders above other attempts to define the modern political problem and the crisis of our civilization. As the author shows, the modern state of chaos can only be understood as the latest phase of the Revolution, which is not merely a change in political forms, but the metaphysical reordering of Western Civilization. This drives the study first to the Protestant Reformation, where man's relationship to his Creator was redefined, and onto the French Revolution with the upending of the rational political state. With the Bolshevik Revolution we find the scattering of property rights under the regime of industrial technology, and with 1968 the displacement of the very notion of society itself. The study concludes with a discussion of 2020, which presages the diminution of the biological individual, and the final course of transhumanism. EMPIRE OF HATRED is essential to anyone seeking to avoid facile definitions and easy solutions to the current political crisism, and stands to provide a powerful new force to the project of reaction.
