The review responds to the publication in Ukrainian of four books by the contemporary American political scientist and observer Francis Fukuyama. These are relatively new works that appeared for the first time in English in 2011, 2015, 2018, and 2022. The aim of the review is to draw attention to the topical issues tackled in these books. The reviewer concludes that the value of the appearance of Fukuyama’s books in Ukrainian lies not least in making us think about the flaws of schematic politics and attempts to reduce the multifaceted, heterogeneous social reality to a fixed formula.
