The brilliant and provocative new book from one of the worldâs foremost political writers
âThe anti-Western revisionists have been out in force in recent years. It is high time that we revise them in turnâŚâ
In , international bestselling author Douglas Murray asks: if the history of humankind is one of slavery, conquest, prejudice, genocide and exploitation, why are only Western nations taking the blame for it?The War on the West
Itâs become perfectly acceptable to celebrate the contributions of non-Western cultures, but discussing their flaws and crimes is called hate speech. Whatâs more it has become acceptable to discuss the flaws and crimes of Western culture, but celebrating their contributions is also called hate speech. Some of this is a much-needed reckoning; however, some is part of a larger international attack on reason, democracy, science, progress and the citizens of the West by dishonest scholars, hatemongers, hostile nations and human-rights abusers hoping to distract from their ongoing villainy.
In , Douglas Murray shows the ways in which many well-meaning people have been lured into polarisation by lies, and shows how far the worldâs most crucial political debates have been hijacked across Europe and America. Propelled by an incisive deconstruction of inconsistent arguments and hypocritical activism, is an essential and urgent polemic that cements Murrayâs status as one of the worldâs foremost political writers.The War on the WestThe War on the West
