What Francis Fukuyama Is Seeing at ‘The End of History’

Francis Fukuyama is a political scientist and author who wrote "The End of History and the Last Man," published in 1992, which argued that liberal democracy represented the final form of human government. Fukuyama has since revised aspects of that thesis in subsequent works, including "Political Order and Political Decay" (2014) and "Identity: The Demand for Dignity and the Politics of Resentment" (2018). In recent public appearances and writings through 2026, Fukuyama has addressed developments in democratic governance, institutional stability, and political identity movements across multiple countries.
