The Civilizing Process and the Past We Now Abhor by Bruce Fleming
Drawing on Elias' thought on the civilising process, this book explores the ways in which we deal with a past that we now abhor, judging the individuals of history outside the context in which they lived and demanding cosmetic rather than real changes to the world in an attempt to address past wrongs.Bruce Fleming is Professor of English at the US Naval Academy and is the author of The End of the Modernist Era in Arts and Academia, Why Liberals and Conservatives Clash, Sexual Ethics: Liberal vs. Conservative, and The New Tractatus: Summing Up Everything, among other works.
