The Crisis Of Democracy.  Report on the Governability of Democracies to the Trilateral Commission
In the 1970s Samuel P.Huntington first ‘big idea' was the notion that there was a ‘crisis in democracy' which was due to a ‘democratic surge' which was making Western-style democracies ungovernable and endangering authority ‘based on hierarchy, expertise and wealth'. The patrician Huntington was disturbed by the demands for popular power and extended economic rights that had grown out of the social movements of the 1960s. His report for the Trilateral Commission rang the alarm bells about this excess of democracy.
Международное положение, которое сложилось из-за нефтяного кризиса (пятикратного увеличений странами ОПЕК цены на сырую нефть начиная с октября 1973 года), описывалось марксистами как структурный кризис капитализма, а либералами - как кризис демократии

The Bell Curve. Intelligence and Class Structure in American Life
According to The Bell Curve, Intelligence and Class Structure in AmericanLife, by Richard J. Herrnstein, Ph.D. Psychology, Harvard University,and Charles Murray, Ph.D. Political Science, M.I.T., black IQ scores areso far below white IQ scores in their distribution as to preclude usefulAffirmative Action Programs. The reason? Only 29,000 African Americans haveIQ levels above 130 points, the minimal level found suitable for many executivesin business. With 15+ million businesses in America, this leaves fewer than1 theoretically qualified African American for each 500 businesses to serveas executives; however, more than 20,000 of these 29,000 African Americansare under 21 years of age and one-half of those precious few 9,000 AfricanAmericans who are presently above 21 years of age will never earn a universityundergraduate degree. That leaves just 4,500 African Americans over 130IQ points with a university degree to share among 15+ million companies.this is why Affirmative Action has aided white women and asians in achievinghigh promotions more than it has African Americans.
