"I find Fatic's social and political critiques praiseworthy. Many of Fatic's suggestions for improvement are also apt and well-reasoned. Fatic's social commentary is expert and refreshing." -- Philosophical Practice "This thoroughly argued and well written book will cause a lot of controversy because it challenges some basic notions of philosophy, psychology and even law, which assume a moral autonomy of the individual. Fatic deftly argues in favour of a society that cares about its members in a moral sense rather than just satisfies material interests. His logic also has some unexpected and disturbing consequences: If there is no moral autonomy of the individual, then western born jihadists confront the deficiencies of western societies whose lack of care has triggered such radical defections." --Klaus Bachmann, Professor of Political Sciences at SWPS University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Poland "Aleksandar Fatic delivers a trenchant critique of post-liberalism's moral bankruptcy, and the depravities inculcated by its centrally-institutionalized values. He argues lucidly and passionately for the re-empowerment of local organic communities as antidotes to the monolithic turpitudes and dysfunctional policies of post-liberal statism.


" --Lou Marinoff, Professor of Philosophy, The City College of New York.
