Francis Fukuyama, som i sin tid skrev om historiens afslutning, spørger nu til dens fremtid: Er det muligt at de liberale demokratier overlever når middelklassen bliver mindre. Samtidig peger han muligvis på, hvad det er for en mekanisme, som marginaliserer de dårligst stillede og som presser middelklassen: ”… the benefits of the most recent waves of technological innovation have accrued disproportionately to the most talented and well-educated members of society. This phenomenon helped cause the massive growth of inequality in the United States over the past generation. In 1974, the top one percent of families took home nine percent of gdp; by 2007, that share had increased to 23.5 percent. Trade and tax policies may have accelerated this trend, but the real villain here is technology.” Har man ikke abbonnement på Foreign Affairs kan Fukuyamas artikel erhverves for små 3 dollar.
