Description: One hundred years ago most Westerners felt tremendous pride and confidence in their civilisation. They knew what it stood for and they believed in it. Today that sense has gone. That is largely because the six principal ideas which underpinned Western confidence - those of Christianity optimism science economic growth liberalism and individualism - have suffered a century of sustained attack. These ideas no longer inspire or unite the West as they once did. The contributors to Suicide of the West believe that in theory a more sophisticated synthesis of the six ideas could provide a way for the West to recover its nerve and integrity. But in practice? This fascinating book seeks to find the answer.
