This book addresses the politics and our obsession about the origin of everything.
People often think that if you know the origin of something, you can understand it, do something about it, fix it, change it, explain it, manipulate it, use it to suit your purpose, use it to punish somebody, use it to claim credit, and even modify it to fit in with whatever you want to prove. But this is really the highly dangerous politics of origin.
The politics of searching for the origin of the Covid-19 pandemic is poisoning the relationship between USA and China and setting up a great debate about all kinds of conspiracy theories.
This book explores this and many other origin issues and asks whether all origins are knowable and whether it really matters to know the origin of everything that are related to different ideologies, cultures and civilizations. It examines many hard questions that need to be asked about bad politics and bad policies. It also highlights the terrible dangers of vicious politics and superpower rivalry in the modern world.
