Hardback. Condition: New. A brilliant meditation on politics, morality, and history from one of the most courageous and controversial authors of our age Renowned Eastern European author Adam Michnik was jailed for more than six years by the communist regime in Poland for his dissident activities. He was an outspoken voice for democracy in the world divided by the Iron Curtain and has remained so to the present day. In this thoughtful and provocative work, the man the Financial Times named "one of the 20 most influential journalists in the world" strips fundamentalism of its religious component and examines it purely as a secular political phenomenon. Comparing modern-day Poland with postrevolutionary France, Michnik offers a stinging critique of the ideological "virus of fundamentalism" often shared by emerging democracies: the belief that, by using techniques of intimidating public opinion, a state governed by "sinless individuals" armed with a doctrine of the only correct means of organizing human relations can build a world without sin. Michnik employs deep historical analysis and keen political observation in his insightful five-point philosophical meditation on morality in public life, ingeniously expounding on history, religion, moral thought, and the present political climate in his native country and throughout Europe.

From the rear cover write-up : "Amazing changes in Eastern Europe erupt in world politics, and not one of America's foreign policy gurus comes within a country mile of predicting them", Eric Alterman wrote in "The New York Times" However, he continued , "The British writer Timothy Garton Ash has documented grassroots politics in Eastern Europe for 'The New York Review of Books' since 1984 . Even before Mr. Gorbachev, he reported that pressure for democratic change was building from below." "Comments like these are no surprise to 'New York Review' readers who have been perusing essays from Czechoslovak President Vaclev Havel since 1979. Havel's essays, which now come by fax from the Prague Castle, used to arrive via the Czech underground when he was in prison. Andrei Sakharov and Adam Michnik are other famous dissidents whose early essays for the 'Review' were written in prison or internal exile. In this book some of the best essays from dissident writers , plus a 'Conversation in Prague' by Philip Roth are collected in a single volume : "Writings From the East".
