In the third decade of the third millennium, totalitarian regimes have changed their principle: nowadays we call them fundamentalisms. The open society and the care to the death of liberty and democracy in an individual way and in a group, appear as the unique opposing parties for facing them, even inside of the democracies themselves, when messianic leaders appear and argue the care of the established order, not only when is about their territory, but also beyond. Historicism has not dead, as some people would want, looking for it with a lamp during the clear day; it is presented in shape of liberty and eternal Paradise.\r\n\r\nNowadays, democracy is found facing another challenge, which without doubt has put democracy in alert. The fundamentalism, the West or the East, touched with strength the doors of Europe since the beginning of the third millennium. To the West fundamentalism of the falcons of administration of Bush�s son to attacks to liberty of expression in France by the fundamentalists from the East, the figure of the Austrian philosopher Karl Popper, appears as an argument more for looking after and to defend democracy. His liberalism, misunderstood by many people, teach us to have respect for our neighbors and at the same time, to stop every iota of totalitarianism and in the current situation, fundamentalism.
