What is Understanding Global Anger and Discontent about?

The document discusses the roots of modern societal anger and upheaval. It argues that Enlightenment concepts like ressentiment and amour-propre have fostered an individualistic outlook and resentment against perceived societal elites. While the Enlightenment ideals of reason and equality were inspiring, the failure to implement them evenly has accumulated frustration over centuries. Figures like Rousseau predicted this outcome of liberal ideas increasing awareness of inequality rather than solving it.
