The Endless Pendulum: Democracy Right Wing Left Wing and The Sacred Conflict of Power

The Endless Pendulum: Democracy Right Wing Left Wing and the Sacred Conflict of PowerBy Ramkumar S PWhy do civilizations rise with ideals and fall into tyranny? Why does democracy never seem to settle-but always swing between hope and betrayal freedom and fear Left and Right?The Endless Pendulum is a bold exploration of the cycles that define politics society and the human soul. Moving beyond shallow commentary Ramkumar S P offers a sweeping lyrical and uncompromising inquiry into why ideologies fail why democracies falter and why extremism keeps returning-disguised repackaged and embraced by each new generation.From primal survival to the rise of hierarchies...From the invention of identity to the collapse of trust...From the myth of the saviour to the psychology of tyranny...From the betrayal of revolutions to the eternal conflict within the human heart...This book journeys through history philosophy and power politics to uncover an uncomfortable truth: democracy does not fall from external attacks-it dies from within when citizens surrender their duty when ideologies become cults and when power becomes more sacred than principle.But this is not just a warning. It is a call to conscience.Through its blend of intellectual rigor and emotional clarity The Endless Pendulum argues that democracy survives not by eliminating conflict but by honouring it. That true patriotism lies not in crushing the other side but in protecting it. That a free society does not exist despite disagreement-but because of it.Whether you're a political thinker a concerned citizen a student of history or someone disillusioned by the noise of modern discourse this book invites you to look deeper. To ask harder questions. To see democracy not as a finished product but a fragile sacred effort-reborn each generation through struggle and sacrifice.If you've ever wondered why political cycles repeat why ideological purists fail or what it really takes to protect freedom The Endless Pendulum will leave you changed.
