Jun 25, Mientras Leo rated it really liked it. Conociendo en lo que te metes, es una lectura estupenda. Apr 19, David rated it it was amazing Shelves: The call of the tribe. I am both amazed and bewildered by this book. According to the jacket, several interviews and reviews that I have read, this is an intellectual autobiography.
MVLL writes about seven intellectuals who influenced him over the years. All of them have liberal views and in doing so, help to underline what is liberalism. A timely subject as liberalism, elitism and the left are under fire while right wing views seems to be soaring to the forefront across the world. In his youth, M The call of the tribe.
In his youth, MVLL was caught up with the left. This puzzled me because at the time, I had a different view of them. With the help of these seven writers, MVLL reflects on his politics, cultural and social views in his always enlightening and erudite language. Each of the seven attracted MMVL for various reasons.
He starts with the father or liberalism, Adam Smith The Wealth of Nations , explaining that liberal thought developed with the right of ownership. Personally this was my favourite of the group. In each case, he gives a background story, their books and various anecdotes along the way. Several had key antagonists Hayek and Keynes; Sartre and Aron.
Most developed their views from the hardships of life and were opposed to nazism and communism. This was not a form of hero worship as MVLL threw in their less than attractive sides. So what does one ascertain?
Liberals believe in human rights, the right to own property, all are equal before the law, and have the right to be educated. They can lean to the left, like social democrats or can even be conservative. All of this I was amazed at. What bewildered me was some of the issues he brought up. Fascists and communists, extreme right wing fanatics and ISIS hate change, love history remember the good old days , and think the same as the leaders. This is the call of the tribe. That is what bewilders me. There was one very sad reflection.
Raymond Aron knew Jean Paul Sartre but did not agree with his views on communism. Sartre vehemently denied the Soviets had gulag work camps, later proven by Alexander Solzhenitsyn. MVLL went to see the th anniversary of Sartre a few years back as the French had gone all out to celebrate.
It was also the same centenary of Aron; much less fan fare. There was an awful lot to digest here.

I am still bewildered because of what I believed in I would say I am a liberal thinker seems to be collapsing all around me. This was a master work of writing. It is very timely but I fear, is it too late. I certainly have even more respect for Mario Vargas Llosa. Writing in his early 80s, he has lost none of his fire. On a personal note, review Jun 13, Gordon rated it really liked it. Mario Vargas Llosa is a great novelist, and it's interesting to understand how his evolving political beliefs changed from the Marxism of his youth to the market-loving, quasi-libertarianism of his later years.
That evolution was influenced by a handful of key thinkers, whose work he outlines in this volume. These include Adam Smith the best chapter of the book , Jose Ortega y Gassett, Raymon [This book is currently only available in Spanish as of June , but I suspect that will soon change]. Some of these are relatively unknown in the English-speaking world outside the world of academia, especially if they weren't either British or American.
Interestingly, the earliest of these writers, Adam Smith, remains by far the most influential in his intellectual, social and economic impact. Von Hayek also maintains a selective influence, particularly in right-wing US circles among those who read political theory, though von Hayek himself would no doubt be bewildered by the very anti-democratic, authoritarian turn which the US right has taken. The illiberal, plutocratic, authoritarian democracy of Trump is not at all what either von Hayek or Smith had in mind -- though of course Trump is wildly unlikely to have read either.
Vargas Llosa says that all these writers influenced him on his path to "liberalism", a term he uses in its more European sense of being strongly in support of the free market, the rule of law, and a relatively small role for government, yet within a democratic system -- a center-right political position. Though it shares some properties with animal culture, it is not merely a natural Darwinian extension of animal culture. Les pongo este comentario a los del blog de la BN.
