Description
The Strange Death of Europe: Immigration, Identity, Islam Douglas Murray's thought-provoking account of a continent in crisis offers a deeply personal and insightful exploration of the social, political, and economic forces shaping Europe today. Through his reporting from across the continent, Murray sheds light on the complex issues driving a continent in self-destruct mode, from declining birth-rates and mass immigration to the cultivation of self-distrust and self-hatred. Murray's journey takes him to various European cities, where he encounters the people who welcome and reject migrants, and uncovers the underlying causes of a continent's malaise. With impressive research and evidence, he addresses the disappointing failure of multiculturalism, Angela Merkel's U-turn on migration, and the Western fixation on guilt, painting a picture of Europe in crisis and offering a choice as to what, if anything, can be done next. The book concludes with two visions of Europe, one hopeful and one pessimistic, leaving the reader to ponder the future of the continent and its place in the world.
