About this Product

Be it Foucaults insight into a society based on power-knowledge or Fukuyamas attempts to predict the future based on the end-game situation of liberal democracy, both are like trying to work out a curvature of a line from a given point by using pre-calculus maths. No amount of elaborate narratives based on a quasi-dynamic, phenomenological concept like discourses or a static concept like liberal democracy will capture the dynamism of moving events and their fluid directions called future. You need the methodology of operative concepts that process moving events. My essay is based on a holistic and dynamic concept with logical progressions. Instead of capturing movements as a still picture I try to record constantly changing situations in terms of modality of history. It is the necessity of tangencies and encompassments for Circles of Identity (CI) that forms history. The momentum of self that bridges the past and the future is the propellant of CIs, which follows certain rules to suggest our destiny.
