Aprašymas

The Manifesto of Compassionate Bastardism is, on the one hand, pure entertainment offering an irreverent view of modern life. On the other hand, it is a serious political text tapping into the international dissatisfaction with the current political and philosophical reality which has resulted in war and worldwide economic recession and offering a viable 'third way' to failed Capitalism and Socialism. The book's controversial and even shocking stance on various issues is likely to awake media interest and even public ire. Compassionate Bastardism is a philosophy of pragmatism that is informed by and informs the realities of living in modern society. Compassionate Bastardism acknowledges the seeming contradiction that human beings are capable of compassion for each other and, often at the same time, of inordinate selfishness. Instead of attempting to suppress either the compassionate or the bastard side of human nature, Compassionate Bastardism values both the egocentric and the societal and harnesses these instincts in a social and political philosophy which protects the weak and works for the 'greater good', while encouraging the progress brought about through individualism.
