Summer 1960: An Ideological Upheaval (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798287561505)

"Are you a communist?" I asked suddenly.

"Certainly not! What's the point of an ideology if it's only used to destroy? For me, ideology is just a principle-when you're tired of it, you can just swap it out! And what about you? From your writings, the capitalists would label you a socialist-maybe even a communist-and vice versa. But regardless, I remain your loyal reader. Especially your bold claim that modern nationalism is just the child of feudal nationalism, which began after the fall of Rome. I couldn't agree more."

"Being 'gray' always invites ridicule-or worse, extinction. The way the First and Second Worlds are expanding into the Third World today proves that neutrality is not allowed. Whatever ideology wins in the end, one thing is certain-nationalism will always remain a weapon for the elite to mobilize their people. Nationalism, in any form."

If we are born to defy fate, then which fate is it that we must oppose? In recent years, it seems history has conspired to divide the world in two-right and left. These ideologies have hardened into something resembling a cosmic order: light and darkness, good and evil. If this is indeed the condition of our time, then perhaps the highest virtue lies in remaining steadfast-in choosing and upholding one's convictions with integrity. Yet how long will this ideological conflict persist? And is there any corner of the Earth left untouched-where safety, or even neutrality, still exists?
