Book excerpt: In the euphoric aftermath of 1989's history-making events, the fall of the Berlin Wall and Soviet Union, reviewers heralded Francis Fukuyama's national bestseller The End of History and the Last Man as 'the first book to fully fathom the depth and range of the changes now sweeping through the world.' In After History?, 13 critics from across the political spectrum offer provocative responses to Fukuyama's bold declaration that democracy and capitalism have triumphed over totalitarianism and socialism. Fukuyama responds directly to his critics in a concluding chapter.
