3 Writings

Fukuyama is best known as the author of The End of His-tory and the Last Man, in which he argued that the pro-gression of human history as a struggle between ideolo-gies is largely at an end, with the world settling on liberaldemocracy after the end of the Cold War and the fall ofthe Berlin Wall in 1989. Fukuyama predicted the even-tual global triumph of political and economic liberalism:

What we may be witnessing is not just theend of the Cold War, or the passing of a par-ticular period of postwar history, but the endof history as such.... That is, the end point of

2 3 WRITINGS

mankind’s ideological evolution and the uni-versalization of Western liberal democracy asthe final form of human government.

Authors like Ralf Dahrendorf argued in 1990 that the es-say gave Fukuyama his 15 minutes of fame, which willbe followed by a slide into obscurity.[12][13] He continuedto remain a relevant and cited public intellectual leadingAmerican communitarian Amitai Etzioni to declare him“one of the few enduring public intellectuals. They are of-ten media stars who are eaten up and spat out after their15 minutes. But he has lasted.”[14]

One of the main reasons for the massive criticism againstThe End of History was the aggressive stance that it tooktowards postmodernism. Postmodern philosophy had,in Fukuyama’s opinion, undermined the ideology behindliberal democracy, leaving the western world in a poten-tially weaker position.[15] The fact that Marxism and fas-cism had been proven untenable for practical use whileliberal democracy still thrived was reason enough to em-brace the hopeful attitude of the Progressive era, as thishope for the future was what made a society worth strug-gling to maintain. Postmodernism, which, by this time,had become embedded in the cultural consciousness, of-fered no hope and nothing to sustain a necessary senseof community, instead relying only on lofty intellectualpremises.[16] Being a work that both praised the idealsof a group that had fallen out of favor and challengedthe premises of the group that had replaced them, it wasbound to create some controversy.Fukuyama has written a number of other books, amongthem Trust: The Social Virtues and the Creation of Pros-perity and Our Posthuman Future: Consequences of theBiotechnology Revolution. In the latter, he qualifiedhis original “end of history” thesis, arguing that sincebiotechnology increasingly allows humans to control theirown evolution, it may allow humans to alter human na-ture, thereby putting liberal democracy at risk.[17] Onepossible outcome could be that an altered human naturecould end in radical inequality. He is a fierce enemy oftranshumanism, an intellectual movement asserting thatposthumanity is a desirable goal.In another work, The Great Disruption: Human Natureand the Reconstruction of Social Order, Fukuyama ex-plores the origins of social norms, and analyses the cur-rent disruptions in the fabric of our moral traditions,which he considers as arising from a shift from the man-ufacturing to the information age. This shift is, he thinks,normal and will prove self-correcting, given the intrinsichuman need for social norms and rules.In 2006, in America at the Crossroads, Fukuyama dis-cusses the history of neoconservatism, with particular fo-cus on its major tenets and political implications. He out-lines his rationale for supporting the Bush administration,as well as where he believes it has gone wrong.

In 2008, Fukuyama published the book Falling Behind:Explaining the Development Gap Between Latin Americaand the United States, which resulted from research and aconference funded by Grupo Mayan to gain understand-ing on why Latin America, once far wealthier than NorthAmerica, fell behind in terms of development in onlya matter of centuries. Discussing this book at a 2009conference, Fukuyama outlined his belief that inequal-ity within Latin American nations is a key impedimentto growth. An unequal distribution of wealth, he stated,leads to social upheaval, which then results in stuntedgrowth.[18]

3.1 Neoconservatism

As a key Reagan Administration contributor to the for-mulation of the Reagan Doctrine, Fukuyama is an im-portant figure in the rise of neoconservatism, although hisworks came out years after Irving Kristol's 1972 bookcrystallized neoconservatism.[19] Fukuyama was active inthe Project for the New American Century think tankstarting in 1997, and as a member co-signed the organiza-tion’s 1998 letter recommending that President Bill Clin-ton support Iraqi insurgencies in the overthrow of then-President of Iraq SaddamHussein.[20] Hewas also amongforty co-signers of William Kristol’s September 20, 2001letter to President George W. Bush after the September11, 2001 attacks that suggested the U.S. not only “captureor kill Osama bin Laden", but also embark upon “a de-termined effort to remove Saddam Hussein from powerin Iraq”.[21]

In a New York Times article from February 2006,Fukuyama, in considering the ongoing Iraq War, stated:“What American foreign policy needs is not a return toa narrow and cynical realism, but rather the formulationof a 'realistic Wilsonianism' that better matches means toends.”[22] In regard to neoconservatism he went on to say:“What is needed now are new ideas, neither neoconserva-tive nor realist, for how America is to relate to the rest ofthe world – ideas that retain the neoconservative belief inthe universality of human rights, but without its illusionsabout the efficacy of American power and hegemony tobring these ends about.”[22]

3.2 Fukuyama’s current views

Fukuyama began to distance himself from the neoconser-vative agenda of the Bush administration, citing its ex-cessive militarism and embrace of unilateral armed in-tervention, particularly in the Middle East. By late 2003,Fukuyama had voiced his growing opposition to the IraqWar[23] and called for Donald Rumsfeld's resignation asSecretary of Defense.[24]

At an annual dinner of the American Enterprise Institutein February 2004, Dick Cheney and Charles Krautham-mer declared the beginning of a unipolar era under Amer-

ican hegemony. “All of these people around me werecheering wildly,”[25] Fukuyama remembers. He believesthat the IraqWar was being blundered. “All of my friendshad taken leave of reality.”[25] He has not spoken to PaulWolfowitz (previously a good friend) since.[25]

Fukuyama declared he would not be voting for Bush,[26]and that the Bush administration had made three majormistakes:

• Overstating the threat of radical Islam to the US

• Failing to foresee the fierce negative reaction to its“benevolent hegemony”. From the very beginningshowing a negative attitude toward the United Na-tions and other intergovernmental organizations andnot seeing that it would increase anti-Americanismin other countries

• Misjudging what was needed to bring peace in Iraqand being overly optimistic about the success withwhich social engineering of western values could beapplied to Iraq and the Middle East in general.

Fukuyama believes the US has a right to promote its ownvalues in the world, but more along the lines of what hecalls “realistic Wilsonianism", with military interventiononly as a last resort and only in addition to other measures.A latent military force is more likely to have an effectthan actual deployment. The US spends 43% of globalmilitary spending,[27] but Iraq shows there are limits toits effectiveness.The US should instead stimulate political and economicdevelopment and gain a better understanding of what hap-pens in other countries. The best instruments are settinga good example and providing education and, in manycases, money. The secret of development, be it politi-cal or economic, is that it never comes from outsiders,but always from people in the country itself. One thingthe US proved to have excelled in during the aftermathof World War II was the formation of international in-stitutions. A return to support for these structures wouldcombine American power with international legitimacy.But such measures require a lot of patience. This is thecentral thesis of his 2006 workAmerica at the Crossroads.In a 2006 essay in The New York Times Magazine stronglycritical of the invasion, he identified neoconservatismwith Leninism. He wrote that neoconservatives:[28]

believed that history can be pushed alongwith the right application of power and will.Leninism was a tragedy in its Bolshevik ver-sion, and it has returned as farce when prac-ticed by the United States. Neoconservatism,as both a political symbol and a body ofthought, has evolved into something I can nolonger support.

Fukuyama announced the end of the neoconservative mo-ment and argued for the demilitarization of the War onTerrorism:[28]

[W]ar is the wrong metaphor for thebroader struggle, since wars are fought at fullintensity and have clear beginnings and end-ings. Meeting the jihadist challenge is moreof a “long, twilight struggle” [quoting JohnF. Kennedy’s inaugural address] whose core isnot a military campaign but a political contestfor the hearts and minds of ordinary Muslimsaround the world.

Fukuyama endorsed Barack Obama in the 2008 US pres-idential election. He states:[29]

I'm voting for Barack Obama this Novem-ber for a very simple reason. It is hard to imag-ine a more disastrous presidency than that ofGeorge W. Bush. It was bad enough that helaunched an unnecessary war and underminedthe standing of the United States throughoutthe world in his first term. But in the waningdays of his administration, he is presiding overa collapse of the American financial system andbroader economy that will have consequencesfor years to come. As a general rule, democra-cies don't work well if voters do not hold po-litical parties accountable for failure. WhileJohn McCain is trying desperately to pretendthat he never had anything to do with the Re-publican Party, I think it would be a travestyto reward the Republicans for failure on such agrand scale.
