More about the book
The book presents a critical analysis of historicism, arguing it undermines the transcendent aspects of human affairs. Sylvain Kambala closely examines key texts by Leo Strauss, who posits that political philosophy seeks the ideal regime beyond historical confines. The work contrasts the views of Ancient philosophers like Plato with Modern thinkers, portraying the latter's departure from Platonic ideals as a decline. Ultimately, the book aims to recover the authentic political philosophy championed by Strauss, challenging the dominance of contemporary historicism.
