Highlights
& Quotes
Fukuyama,
a former State Department official famous for his much-maligned
“end of history” thesis -- which he spelled out in his
1992 book The End of History and the Last Man -- is a political
scientist at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies,
a Washington-based university that has served as a base for a number
of key neoconservative bigwigs, including Paul Wolfowitz, Eliot
Cohen, and Gary Schmitt (the executive director of the Project for
the New American Century). He also serves on the President's Council
on Bioethics.
In
an article for the Washington Post published on the one-year anniversary
of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Fukuyama lamented the growing rift
between the United States and its allies, which he argued rested
in part on differing views of international law. “Europeans
argue that they are trying to build a rule-based international order,
and they are horrified by the Bush administration's announcement
of a virtually open-ended doctrine of preemption against terrorists
or states that sponsor terrorists.” He later writes, “Americans
are right to insist that there is no such thing as an ‘international
community’ in the abstract, and that nation-states must ultimately
look out for themselves when it comes to critical matters of security.”
Regarding the International Criminal Court, he says that “instead
of strengthening democracy on an international level, it tends to
undermine democracy where it concretely lives, in nation-states.”
Fukuyama
is also the author of Trust: The Social Virtues and the Creation
of Prosperity, 1995: The Great Disruption: Human Nature and the
Reconstitution of Social Order, 1999; and Our Posthuman Future:
Consequences of the Biotechnology Revolution, 2002. (1), (6)
