Description
This book is the first part of a trilogy - The Betrayal of Philosophy - that concerns the roots of the post-truth phenomenon. Its intent is to provide the philosophical world with a phantasm in which it can see not just the what of 'historical engineering,' but the why: to show the flaws of modern philosophy itself. The phantasm regards the most successful modern project of historical and social engineering: the Armenian Genocide. It includes both Turkey's 'historical engineering' - its official policy of genocide negation - and the massive late Ottoman project of social and territorial engineering which led to the murder of the first Christian nation: Armenia.
