Abstract

Reviews of Francis Fukuyama’s ideas of the end of history and Samuel Huntington’s concept of the clash of civilizations still haunt Anglo-American foreign policy and deserve scrutiny. Both ideas lack a foundation in culture history or the study of technology and culture change theory. A general analysis of the ideas in this context demonstrates how ethnocentric both ideas are.

Keywords: End of History, Fukuyama, Huntington, Clash of Civilizations
