Through a sweeping historical narrative spanning centuries, Hybel traces the evolution of human civilization, from the dawn of the Renaissance to the digital age. Drawing upon diverse disciplines including history, politics, religion, economics, and environmental science, Hybel reveals how each successive wave of technological innovation, economic growth and individual political and economic freedom has fueled a destructive cycle of consumerism, exploitation, and ecological degradation.At the heart of this book lies a stark warning: our addiction to growth and consumption is driving us inexorably towards our own demise. Hybel argues that our unwavering faith in the virtues of capitalism, democracy, and technological advancement has blinded us to the existential threats facing our planet and our species.But Hybel offers more than a critique of the status quo; he presents a compelling case for radical transformation. By interrogating the intertwined forces of technology, capitalism, and individualism, Hybel challenges readers to confront the uncomfortable truths at the root of our collective predicament.
Alex Roberto Hybel, born in Argentina, where he lived for 19 years, journeyed from the study of photography to serving as a photographer/journalist in the U.S. military during the Vietnam War. Following the completion of his military service, he earned a PhD in Political Science from Stanford University, USA. He taught at Connecticut College, USA, for 28 years as the Susan Eckert Lunch Professor of International Relations. The Unintended Destruction of the Human Race is his eleventh academic book. His previous books include comparative analyses of the foreign policy decision-making processes of eight U.S. presidents, and the conditions that facilitated and obstructed the creation of stable democratic regimes in the Americas. He has also authored photography books. He has received awards/grants from Fulbright, the National Science Foundation, the Freeman Foundation, the Carnegie Corporation, and Connecticut College. He retired in 2018, but continues to write and travel.
