| Summary: | As a political economy scholar, Francis Fukuyama will always be remembered for “the
end of history” thesis. He has made no secrets regarding his affiliation to
neoconservatism and his close involvement in the implementation of the Pax Americana
agenda through the Project for the New American Century. However, post-September
11, 2001 or widely known as 9/11, has led Fukuyuma to believe that the neoconservative
approaches in the war against terrorism are flawed. This article tries to demonstrate the
extent of Fukuyama’s disillusionments and his proposals to reinvigorate United States’
foreign policy in his new book, After the Neocons (2006). What seems clear is that
Fukuyama still defends neoconservatism as a good approach. Should the idea of
democratisation be perceived as effectively practised, the neoconservatives should pay
more attention to the aspect of political development |
