Schorske, the liberal values of reason and law did not stem the re-emergence of racial prejudice and national hatred in turn-of-the-century Vienna.” The growing prominence of new social groups based along religious, ideological, and ethnic divisions eroded classical liberal values and challenged its political authority.

Shark Fin Soup was introduced into Chinese cuisine during the Sung Dynasty (AD 960–1279) but did not…
