Автор:Mathias M Год: 2005 Издание:Книга по Требованию Страниц: 304 ISBN: 9781844014484 The year is 2052. Four words written on a wall in Mr White's plantation have the most violent consequences. But this brutality can no longer be tolerated - the black slaves unite against their master. This book was born from the author's concern for the current African situation and from his desire to expose the pernicious character of racism. In the first part of the book he looks at the contemporary world since the 11th September 2001, drawing on works of political philosophy to support his analysis. In the fictional story that follows, we witness how the slaves, liberated from Mr White, form a republic and work hard to make it a success. But what is the future of their new democratic system? How does the country finally acquire its name, 'Africa PLC'? This is an unsettling yet absorbing book which examines the nature of the state's power over the individual. The work is written eloquently, and with much thought. The message comes through - the theme is universal and touches all.
