Left in Dark Times: A Stand Against the New Barbarism Hardback - 2008
de Bernard-Henri Levy
Resumen
In this unprecedented critique, Bernard-Henri Levy, one of the world's leading intellectuals revisits his political roots, scrutinizes the totalitarianisms of the past as well as those on the horizon, and argues powerfully for a new political and moral vision for our times. Are human rights Western or universal? Does anti-Semitism have a future, and, if so, what will it look like? And how is it that progressives themselves--those who in the past defended individual rights and fought fascism--have now become the breeding ground for new kinds of dangerous attitudes: an unthinking loathing of Israel; an obsessive anti-Americanism; an idea of "tolerance" that, in its justification of Islamic fanaticism, for example, could become the "cemetery of democracies"; and an indifference, masked by relativism, to the greatest human tragedies facing the world today? Illuminating these and other questions, Levy also brings to life his own autobiography, highlighting the thinkers he has known and scrutinized and the ideological battles he has fought over thirty years--revealing their bearing on the present.Above all, Levy offers a powerful new vision for progressives everywhere, one based neither on the failed idealisms of the past neither nor on their current misguided, bigoted, and dangerously sentimental attachments but on an absolute commitment to combat evil in all its guises. The "new barbarism" Levy compellingly diagnoses is real and must be confronted. At a time of ideological and political transition in America, Left in Dark Times is a polemical, incendiary articulation of the threats we all face--in many cases without our even being aware of it--and a riveting, cogent stand against those threats. Surprising and sure to be controversial, wise and free of cynicism, it is one of the most important books yet written by one of the crucial voices of our time.Praise for Bernard-Henri Levy's American Vertigo"An entertaining trip, as much in the tradition of Jack Kerouac as Tocqueville." --The New York Times "Perceptive, pugnacious, passionate [and] exquisitely written."--The New York Observer"It's difficult to remember when a writer of any nationality so clearly and thoughtfully delineated both the good and bad in America. [Grade:] A."--Entertainment Weekly (Editor's Choice)"Levy is a true friend of the American experiment and a comrade in the American struggle against the barbarisms."--The New Republic"Levy writes brilliantly. American Vertigo is filled with insights and goodwill."--The Wall Street Journal"Provocative . . . [Levy is] a writer of enormous power and vitality."--San Francisco Chronicle"Vigorous . . . impressive."--The Boston GlobeFrom the Hardcover edition.
