There's something rotten in the Kingdom of Kristol
Les néo-conservateurs sont-ils au bord du schisme ? Un nouvel article de Francis Fukuyama, l'auteur de "La fin de l'histoire et le dernier homme" fait en tout cas beaucoup de bruit.Un extrait choisi:
Of all of the different views that have now come to be associated with neoconservatives, the strangest one to me was the confidence that the United States could transform Iraq into a Western-style democracy, and go on from there to democratize the broader Middle East. It struck me as strange precisely because these same neoconservatives had spent much of the past generation warning-in The National Interest's former sister publication, The Public Interest, for example-about the dangers of ambitious social engineering, and how social planners could never control behavior or deal with unanticipated consequences. If the United States cannot eliminate poverty or raise test scores in Washington, dc, how does it expect to bring democracy to a part of the world that has stubbornly resisted it and is virulently anti-American to boot?
Affaire à suivre, donc !
