Fear is gripping. It can paralyze. It can force people to do things they normally wouldn't do. Many are repulsed by it because of the trepidation it causes. It has many facets due to it's unique nature, therefore few choose to explore its depths. I can understand why. It awakens in us those primal forces that we've fought so hard to control or contain. Yet we all acknowledge it's there. If we're caught off guard, we know it can unexpectedly take control. For many, this thought frightens them most of all... However, there are other aspects to this ancient force. For some, it has the ability to excite or even arouse... so I decided to take a journey into it's deepest, darkest depths and share what I discovered. With that being said, I ask you to join me in the chapters that follow. For even in darkness, great discoveries can be made.

Download or read book Fear written by Corey Robin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2004-10-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many commentators, September 11 inaugurated a new era of fear. But as Corey Robin shows in his unsettling tour of the Western imagination--the first intellectual history of its kind--fear has shaped our politics and culture since time immemorial. From the Garden of Eden to the Gulag Archipelago to today's headlines, Robin traces our growing fascination with political danger and disaster. As our faith in positive political principles recedes, he argues, we turn to fear as the justifying language of public life. We may not know the good, but we do know the bad. So we cling to fear, abandoning the quest for justice, equality, and freedom. But as fear becomes our intimate, we understand it less. In a startling reexamination of fear's greatest modern interpreters--Hobbes, Montesquieu, Tocqueville, and Arendt--Robin finds that writers since the eighteenth century have systematically obscured fear's political dimensions, diverting attention from the public and private authorities who sponsor and benefit from it. For fear, Robin insists, is an exemplary instrument of repression--in the public and private sector. Nowhere is this politically repressive fear--and its evasion--more evident than in contemporary America. In his final chapters, Robin accuses our leading scholars and critics of ignoring "Fear, American Style," which, as he shows, is the fruit of our most prized inheritances--the Constitution and the free market. With danger playing an increasing role in our daily lives and justifying a growing number of government policies, Robin's Fear offers a bracing, and necessary, antidote to our contemporary culture of fear.
