The Philosophy of Power: The New Leviathan, Power Beyond Thrones and Borders (Beyond Kings and Thrones, #2) (eBook, ePUB)

The most dangerous kind of power is the kind that no longer needs to declare itself.In an age where kings wear no crowns and governance hides in code, The Philosophy of Power: The New Leviathan, Power Beyond Thrones and Borders is a piercing meditation on the silent systems that shape our world. From the collapse of traditional institutions to the algorithmic monarchs of the digital age, Sayed Hamid Fatimi traces how control has evolvednot disappeared. This is not a book about politics. It is a book about the architecture behind politics. It is about the illusions we inherit, the myths we defend, and the futures we unknowingly consent to.With poetic precision and philosophical depth, Fatimi reveals how modern power convinces before it coerces, seduces before it surveils, and governs not through force, but through familiarity. Chapters journey through decaying democracies, the commodification of dissent, the rise of soft tyranny, and the quiet suffocation of meaning in the age of speed and spectacle. This book is for those who feel something is off in the worldbut can‘t quite name it. It doesn‘t offer false hope. It offers clarityand that may be the most subversive tool of all.If you‘ve ever wondered why rebellion feels performative, why progress feels hollow, or why freedom feels like an interfaceyou‘re not alone.This book doesn‘t promise revolution.It promises that you‘ll never see power the same way again.
