a| "The Human Paradox analyses the links among the many acute polarisations that mark contemporary times. While acknowledging the limits of progressive politics in the last half century in addressing social issues such as inequality and diversity, it examines how the new world of information can infect as well as enrich culture, economy and democracy itself. The book argues that beneath all the present social tumult lies a fundamental dilemma for human progress, namely how we can be estranged from what we call humanity. Beginning with an appraisal of populism and authoritarian nationalism, the text also examines whether, in our human development, we're bound for doom or bloom. The book concludes with exploration of a radical agenda for future social improvement. Addressing issues related to Trumpism, Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic, and exploring challenges such as a broken economy, climate emergency, artificial intelligence, while offering an outline radical agenda for future social improvement, The Human Paradox will appeal to students of subjects including sociology, politics, history, and economics"--
