Abstract "From Herbert Marcuse to Ibn Khaldun, this book provides thought-provoking insights and innovative analysis of key contemporary issues. Tying his intellectual concerns to social movements in Korea, Germany and dozens of countries, Katsiaficas traces the evolution of history from the global eruption of 1968 and the Black Panther Party to the 1980 Gwangju Uprising and Occupy Wall Street. Fearlessly criticizing Western global domination, he uncovers GWF Hegel's mistaken belief in police as servants of justice and harshly rebukes American and Europeans' beliefs in the superiority of Western civil society. By re-examining stereotypes about the 1871 Paris Commune and Pablo Picasso, Katsiaficas freshly poses fundamental questions facing humanity in the 21st Century. FOREWORD by Paul Messersmith-Glavin and EPILOGUE by Dimitrios Roussopoulos."-- Provided by publisher.
