This fascinating work of history will spark heated debate for years to come. The Great Disruption: Human Nature and the Reconstruction of Social Order proposes that social transformations of the last several decades — such as birth control and the rise of women’s earning power — have contributed to the breakdown of communities. Francis Fukuyama demonstrates how a rise in violent crime and the decline of morality can be directly tied to these social ‘revolutions.’ Focussing on the latest sociological data and economic research, Fukuyama offers a groundbreaking book that illustrates how Western society is poised to reinvent itself through a strengthened sense of social cohesion and moral values. | The Great Disruption by Francis Fukuyama, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
