In economics, politics, and political economy , it has come to mean that there is no alternative to economic liberalism , that free market s, free trade , and capitalism capitalist globalization are the best way for modern societies to develop. The phrase may be traced to its emphatic use by nineteenth century classical liberal thinker Herbert Spencer . ref Social Statics 1851 , pp 42, 307. ref Cabinet minister Norman St John Stevas, Baron St John of Fawsley Norman St John Stevas , one of the leading Wets and dries wets nicknamed Thatcher Tina . In the early nineties, Francis Fukuyama wrote a book named The End of History and the Last Man , which in a similar strain argued that liberal democracy had triumphed over communism and the historical struggle between political systems was over though there could still be future events .
