First printing. A new book. The dust jacket is slightly wrinkled but not damaged nor stained. The book had been opened wide in the middle and shut again but not read, the pages are tight and appear unread. In this work, Fukuyama explores the role of identity in contemporary political life, arguing that the desire for recognition of one's dignity is a fundamental human need that is increasingly driving political movements around the world. He explains how identity politics has shaped recent political developments, such as the rise of populism, nationalism, and the resurgence of leaders. This book is a timely exploration of how identity shapes human behavior and political outcomes, offering insights into why political discourse has become increasingly polarized and how societies can move toward greater cohesion.
