The ten commandments of conservative political parties.

Number 10 - The sure and certain knowledge that all recent social and cultural developments are both evil and dangerous, and that there is no limit to the depth of time at which a preferred society will be found (Victorian? Medieval? Dark Ages? Roman? Egyptian?)

The ten commandments of conservative political parties.

Interesting interview, especially considering how influential Fukuyama was with his 'The End of History' hypothesis in the 90s and his association with neoconservativism
