Liberal Politics

Bys: Y, Nguyen Van and Quoc, Nguyen Anh

The book examines politics as a living human process rooted in the dynamic relationship between power and people. It argues that every political order contains both emancipatory and alienating potentials, shaped by how power operates. Through a historical-dialectical lens, it traces power-subject relations from early communities to the data-AI era, revealing cycles where power expands, resistance emerges, and structures are reconfigured. It analyzes mechanisms that allow power to reproduce itself: moral norms, collective memory control, language manipulation, and technological governance. Political alienation arises when power becomes private property, but these same structures can be transformed through transparency, shared agency, and redefined values. Resistance is seen as both public protest and creative everyday practice, with collective memory guiding strategic action. Freedom is inseparable from political cost, and the body, emotions, and intuition are reclaimed as sites of struggle and transformation.
