The brilliant and provocative new book from one of the worlds foremost political writers

The antiWestern revisionists have been out in force in recent years It is high time that we revise them in turn

In The War on the West 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

Its become perfectly acceptable to celebrate the contributions of nonWestern cultures but discussing their flaws and crimes is called hate speech Whats 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 muchneeded 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 humanrights abusers hoping to distract from their ongoing villainy
In The War on the West Douglas Murray shows the ways in which many wellmeaning people have been lured into polarisation by lies and shows how far the worlds most crucial political debates have been hijacked across Europe and America Propelled by an incisive deconstruction of inconsistent arguments and hypocritical activism The War on the West is an essential and urgent polemic that cements Murrays status as one of the worlds foremost political writers
