Totalitarianism, Terrorism and Supreme Values: History and Theory de Peter Bernholz

Totalitarianism, Terrorism and Supreme Values: History and Theory: Studies in Public Choice, cartea 33

Autor Peter Bernholz
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 iun 2017
Applying a rational choice perspective, this book presents a dynamic theory of the evolution of totalitarian regimes and terrorism. By demonstrating that totalitarian regimes rest on ideologies involving supreme values that are assumed to be absolutely true, the author identifies the factors that lead to totalitarian regimes, and those that transform or abolish those regimes with time. The author addresses different ideologies, such as National Socialism, Communism, and religious movements; examines numerous historical cases of totalitarian regimes; and develops a formal, mathematical model of totalitarianism in the book’s closing chapter.

Recenzii

“An extraordinary piece of research that not only is pleasant to read, but—more important—offers content that should be carefully studied by academics—both lecturers and students—, policy makers and by any responsible citizen who wants to be fully aware of the menaces that threaten democracies. … All in all, the book is highly recommended reading … .” (Thomas Baumert, Constitutional Political Economy, Vol. 32, 2021)
“Bernholz describes supreme-value ideologies that have existed over the ages. He stays literally close to home in describing the supreme values of Adolf Hitler and German National Socialist ideology. … This book is necessary reading for researchers of defense strategy and the economics of defense, but above all for the politicians and administrators to whom we entrust our safety.” (Arye L. Hillman, Public Choice, July, 2018)

“... besticht vor allem durch seinen ungeheuren Reichtum an Details der totalitären Kulturen (oder Unkulturen). Dem Leser wäre die Orientierung erleichtert, enthielte das Buch ein Namensverzeichnis, das mit wenig Zusatzaufwand hätte erstellt werden können. Alles in allem wird das Buch sehr zur Lektüre empfohlen.” (Charles B. Blankart, in: ORDO, Jg. 68, Heft 1, 24. April 2018)
