Anglo-American Establishment

This book reads like the most tedious conspiracy theory of all time but, when one checks out Carroll Quigley, he is a reputable historian. It would appear that he is on the level and this tale of the beginnings of a controlling group must be given some weight.

The unfortunate thing is, I don't quite know what to do with the information, now that I have it. It can hardly come as a great surprise to most people that we have a controlling establishment and, this book puts names to them, up to 1966 but, how am I wiser by what is basically a bunch of names. The best analogy that I can give to this book, is that it reminds me of the time that I read the Bible cover to cover. There are long passages, in the Old Testament that consists solely of show more Fred begat Bill begat... It's really not very interesting and of absolutely no use.

Sorry, I was disappointed. show less

Starts as a C19 and C20 roll-call and personal history of the titans of modern political history, which is strangely fascinating in a soap-opera, Donton Abbey sort of way.

Ends as a back grounder to World War II, which turned my head around more that any other 50 pages I have ever read.

Quigley nous livre une sorte de "Business Who's who" des acteurs "secrets" d'un hégémonisme mondial Anglo-saxon, avec ses vecteurs universitaires, médiatiques, politiques, religieux etc... similaires, mais différents de ceux de la France ou de l'Allemagne. Cet exercice, assez vain, montre que les milieux dirigeants travaillent en réseau de relations personnelles, réseaux plus ou moins organisés. Cela relève du truisme. La nomenclature, laborieusement rassemblée, peut intéresser les experts en who's who, les autres s'y perdront.
Dans son avant propos Pierre Hillard nous livre en hors d'œuvre une déclinaison du complot juif (marrane) depuis Isabelle la Catholique.
On est dans la veine du "Protocole des sages de Sion", des show more conférences très parisiennes des frères Jean et Jérôme Tharaud, de l'International Jew de Henri Ford etc.. tout ce bouillonnement très documenté, mais très orienté, de l'entre-deux guerres.
J'attendais mieux, vu le titre, la qualité des auteurs, et des commentaires enthousiastes. show less
