The political system of the Western countries has become overripe and even senile in a number of aspects that produce a sense of foreignness for the citizens of our age among themselves and in relation with the pyramid of the states. The tower and people appear distant from each other, segregated in an open labyrinth of rules, rather than an expression of each other. This book addresses this odd relation by tracing the historical background and legacy of its genesis. The myths and the enchantments that have accompanied its conception amid various expressions of usurpation are debunked by lifting the artificially produced veil of sacredness.
The gap between technology and governance as practiced by state formations conceived over two centuries ago and only marginally updated is the leitmotif theme that accompanies the senility of the formula that has been ruling over Western societies for decades.
