by Aron, Raymond
South Bend: Regnery/Gateway, 1979. Hardcover. Very Good in Very Good Dust Jacket. Hardcover. Written in the late 1970s by a Frenchman for a French audience, this book was quickly translated into multiple languages and distributed internationally as much of its political theories felt timely and relevant for other audiences. Aron focuses on defending "liberal" rather than "decadent" Europe as the title suggests. He criticizes the economic and ideological faults of socialism, discusses the moral guilt instilled by Marxist-Leninists, and explains why the communist / socialist ideals may sound appealing but would not be advantageous to the people of France (truncated)
