THE FUTURE OF FREEDOM: Illiberal Democracy at HomeandAbroad

Post by Aeolus »

THE FUTURE OF FREEDOM: Illiberal Democracy at Home and Abroad by Fareed Zakaria.
Has anyone read this bok yet? If so what are you opinions on it? Let's try to keep this one amicable :)
For I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see,
Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be;
Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic sails,
Pilots of the purple twilight dropping down with costly bales;
Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rain'd a ghastly dew
From the nations' airy navies grappling in the central blue;

Well it sounds interesting, I will say that.
Via money Europe could become political in five years" "... the current communities should be completed by a Finance Common Market which would lead us to European economic unity. Only then would ... the mutual commitments make it fairly easy to produce the political union which is the goal"

I have not read it yet. There is a show on C-SPAN2 at the moment. Interesting so I am reading online about it. But I will now have a strong opinion either way untill I can either buy it or hit the library.
