Zustand: Aceptable. : En 'The Dragons of Expectation', Robert Conquest ofrece una defensa de la civilización, iluminando las degradaciones políticas y los fetichismos intelectuales del mundo moderno. El libro examina cómo ideas seductoras han corrompido las mentes modernas, a menudo con efectos desastrosos. Conquest analiza cómo falsos dogmas han infectado la academia, los políticos y el público, mostrando cómo su dependencia de 'ismos' y los conceptos destructivos de 'Pueblo, Nación y Masas' han resultado en un ciclo ruinoso de turbulencias y guerra. Incluye análisis de la Revolución de Octubre en Rusia, la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Guerra Fría.
