Identiteit

Identiteitspolitiek op basis van religie, ras, etniciteit of gender heeft op dit moment de overhand. De opleving van de gepolitiseerde islam, identiteitspolitiek gericht op etnische minderheden, activisme op universiteiten en het anti-immigranten-populisme zijn daar voorbeelden van. De behoefte aan identiteit kan niet zomaar opzij worden gezet. Daarom moet zij ingevuld worden op een manier die de democratie ondersteunt in plaats van ondermijnt. 'Identiteit' is een noodzakelijk boek – een ernstige waarschuwing dat we onszelf veroordelen tot voortdurend conflict, tenzij we een universele invulling aan menselijke waardigheid geven. Fukuyama bekijkt in ‘Identiteit’ het electorale succes van populisten. Dit succes wordt vaak verklaard vanuit economische motieven, maar komt in feite voort uit een behoefte aan identiteit. In ‘Het einde van de geschiedenis’ schreef Fukuyama al dat mensen hechten aan erkenning van hun waardigheid. Nu verklaart hij vanuit dit begrip het huidige tijdsgewricht.

The Far West Coast

"The Far West Coast" is a comprehensive historical account detailing the era of maritime exploration along the North Pacific shores of North America. Focusing on the rugged and then-uncharted territories of what would become British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest, the work chronicles the ambitious voyages of legendary explorers such as Vitus Bering, Juan Pérez, Captain James Cook, and George Vancouver. Through a detailed narrative, Vernon Llewellyn Denton explores the intense international competition for territory, the dangerous search for the elusive Northwest Passage, and the burgeoning maritime fur trade that shaped the region's destiny. The book provides vital insight into the interactions between European seafaring expeditions and the indigenous peoples of the coast, as well as the navigational challenges posed by the treacherous waters of the North Pacific. By examining the logistical hurdles and geopolitical motivations of the 18th and 19th centuries, "The Far West Coast" serves as an essential record of the discovery and charting of one of the world's most dramatic coastlines. It remains a valuable resource for students of Canadian history, naval exploration, and the foundational stories of the American West.
