मैं राजनीति दर्शन में कोई विकसित या परिष्कृत विचार रखने का दावा नहीं करता, लेकिन मुझे लगता है कि पिछले कुछ सौ वर्षों के इतिहास से हमें जो एक सीख मिली है, वह यह है कि मानवीय समृद्धि और कल्याण के लिए सबसे बड़ा खतरा कट्टरता और असहिष्णुता है, भले ही वे कितने भी स्पष्ट रूप से सराहनीय लक्ष्यों के नाम पर क्यों न हों।

I do not claim to have any developed or sophisticated views in political philosophy, but I think that one of the lessons of the last few hundred years of history is that the greatest threat to human prosperity and well-being is fanaticism and intolerance, even in the name of apparently laudable goals.

समय के साथ समस्याएँ आती-जाती रहती हैं, और इसके पीछे के कारणों को समझना एक कठिन ऐतिहासिक कार्य है। यदि कोई किसी समस्या की जड़ तक पहुँचना चाहता है, तो उसे ऐतिहासिक शोध और ग्रंथों के सूक्ष्म अध्ययन की आवश्यकता होती है, न कि उन 'मानसिक छवियों' के बारे में अनियंत्रित अटकलें लगाने की जिनकी गिरफ्त में दार्शनिक अक्सर रहते हैं।

Problems come and go over time, and to understand why is a difficult historical task. If one wanted to find the origin of a problem, historical research and close attention to texts is what is needed, not unconstrained speculation about the 'pictures' that philosophers must be in the grip of.

आलोचनात्मक पत्रकारिता अब चलन से बाहर हो गई है, या यों कहें कि इसे खरीद लिया गया है। नतीजतन, वियतनाम युद्ध के दौर की तुलना में अब यह हमारे पास बहुत कम रह गई है, जब वियतनाम युद्ध पर बहुत आलोचनात्मक रिपोर्टिंग होती थी और मीडिया के बीच काफी मतभेद होते थे। अब आप देखेंगे कि मीडिया कहीं अधिक एक जैसा हो गया है, सब एक ही दिशा में जा रहे हैं क्योंकि उन सबको विज्ञापनों देने वाले एक ही समुदाय की पसंद का ध्यान रखना पड़ता है। यह देखकर दुख होता है।

Critical journalism has gone out of fashion, or rather, it has been bought out. And so, we have much less of it than we did during the Vietnam era, where there was very critical reporting on the Vietnam War and a lot of disagreement among the media. Now you find that the media are much more homogenous, converging because they all must cater to the same community of advertisers. It's sad to see.

जरा 1850 के अमेरिकी गुलामों के बारे में सोचिए, या महिलाओं पर होने वाले अत्याचारों को याद कीजिए। इन दोनों ही अन्यायों का बचाव यह कहकर किया जा सकता था—और किया भी जाता था!—कि पिछली पूरी शताब्दी में गुलामों और महिलाओं की स्थिति में सुधार ही हुआ है। खासकर गुलामों से अब कम मेहनत कराई जाती थी, उन्हें कम पीटा जाता था और कम बलात्कार किया जाता था, उन्हें बेहतर खाना मिलता था, और उनके परिवारों को उनसे कम ही अलग किया जाता था। तो क्या 1850 में नैतिक प्रगति का जश्न मनाना सही होता? बिल्कुल नहीं। गुलामी को तभी—अगर उससे पहले नहीं तो कम से कम तभी—खत्म कर दिया जाना चाहिए था और यह खत्म की जा सकती थी।

Think of US slavery in 1850, or the subjection of women. Both of these injustices could have been - and were! - defended by pointing out, quite correctly, that this situation of slaves and women had been improving throughout the preceding century. Slaves, in particular, were worked less hard, beaten and raped less frequently, better fed, and less often ripped apart from their families. So would a celebration of moral progress have been appropriate in 1850? Surely not. Slavery could have been and should have been abolished - then, if not before.

This splendid book discusses how, in the last two hundred fifty years, large numbers of people have achieved levels of well-being that were previously available only to a few individuals, and how this achievement has given rise to equally unprecedented inequalities. Unique in its focus and scope, exceptional knowledge and coherence, and careful argumentation, The Great Escape is highly illuminating and a delight to read.
