This book is the most representative work of Francis Fukuyama, a famous American scholar, and one of the classic works of contemporary world philosophy and society.
Based on Hegel's philosophy, The End of History once again puts forward and explains the concept of "the end of history", and holds that the concept of "freedom and democracy" has been generally accepted by the world as the common sense of social progress since then. No matter what kind of society people live in, the realization process of this theory of human nature is unchangeable.
When Fukuyama put forward the "final conclusion of history", he also analyzed and explained the problem of "the last man" after the development of "freedom and democracy" reached its peak, expressing his deep concern for this historical view.

Fukuyama was originally a disciple of the Strauss School (a conservative) (a student of Bloom), but in the debate between Strauss and Koyev (a dispute between ancient and modern times), he adopted Koyev's "modern" position, so he not only explicitly inherited Hegel-Koyev's problem (modernity-recognized politics-a country with global and universal integration-the end of history).
