It seems to most people who are inundated with news from the press, television or the internet that the problems in their own country or in the world are getting bigger and bigger and that politics and politicians are getting worse and worse. Politicians are unable to solve the problems at hand, or can only do so poorly. They lack a focus on the common good of all citizens, and their actions frequently constitute the root cause of the issue. Almost everyone is aware that only "bad" news sells well, but they are usually unable to free themselves from this misjudgment. Maybe this book can help people overcome this trap of thought and point out ways to make positive changes in the future. Indeed, by analyzing the social development of Homo Sapiens since the acquisition of the ability to write, this work, aims to demonstrate ways in which our political culture can be improved through a more effective selection of politicians and, in so doing, avoiding potentially catastrophic misappointments.
