Enlightenment's Wake
Politics and Culture at the Close of the Modern Age
By John Gray
Published August 28th 1997 by Routledge – 216 pages
Description
Now in paperback, Enlightenment's Wake stakes out the elements of John Gray's new position. He argues that all schools of contemporary political thought are variations on the Enlightenment Project - the Westernizing project of a universal civilization - and that this Enlightenment Project has proved self-undermining and is now exhausted. Fresh thought is needed on the dilemmas of the late modern age.
