In the past, politics played a crucial role in the life of states and peoples - it was required from it that it depicts as best as possible reality. Now, as the French philosopher J. Bodriyar notes, politics faded. What can be expressed in political, what can be ensured by its effective work if today even such classic categories as "people", "class", "proletariat", "objective conditions" do not have a social referee? Instead of the people, the masses, "fantomas" classes act on the historical scene, which means the death of the political process.
But the masses need a leader, a usurpator recognized by them, says another French philosopher - Serge Muscovite. The task of the leader is to maintain the stability of the masses and at the same time finally approve the refusal of the intellectual and political elite from their obligations to society. To fulfill his tasks, the leader has a large set of special means in his arsenal, the German sociologist and philosopher Theodore Adorno tells about them in detail.
The collection also presents the works of other thinkers of the XX - early XXI centuries dedicated to this topic
