Synopsis

What the World Can Learn from the Fall of the West is a dramatic title for a profound unease that has been festering for some time. In the age of Brexit, Trump, and the surge of international populism, the West has been plagued by questions relating to identity, multiculturalism, social mobility, and the influence of Big Tech and social media on representative democracy. With a growing divide between “winners” of globalization and the “losers,” a question unfolds: Are the days of the West numbered? 

In this groundbreaking study, Dr. Sid Lukkassen, a notable Dutch scholar and politician, describes how the West masochistically mistreats itself by weakening national democracies and replacing its own culture and values with Cultural Marxism. The rest of the world beholds this Western self-mutilation in shock and wonder – will China and Islam be the beneficiaries on the world stage?
