The collapse of communism as a serious competitor to liberal capitalism has generated a state of euphoria among liberals of the Right and Center, qualified only by the reflection that the “end of history,” in Francis Fukuyama's celebrated phrase, will be a “very sad time” for those who value “daring, courage, imagination, and idealism.” The “unabashed victory of economic and political liberalism,” as Fukuyama sees it, means the universal rule of law, the globalization of the “classless society” that has already been achieved in the US, a steady expansion of the supply of consumer goods, a “universal homogenous state,” and a “post-historical consciousness” in which “ideological struggle ... will be replaced by economic calculation, the endless solving of technical problems, environmental concerns, and the satisfaction of sophisticated consumer demands.”
