The End of Europe: Dictators, Demagogues, and the Coming Dark Age Audiobook (Free)
Summary:
Once the world’s bastion of liberal, democratic beliefs, Europe is currently needing to confront demons it thought it had laid to rest. The aged pathologies of anti-Semitism, populist nationalism, and territorial aggression are threatening to rip the Western european postwar consensus aside. In riveting dispatches from this unfolding tragedy, Adam Kirchick displays us the shallow disingenuousness of the leaders who forced for “Brexit;” examines what sort of vast migrant influx can be exacerbating tensions between Europeans and their Muslim minorities; explores the rising anti-Semitism that triggers Jewish institutions and synagogues in France and Germany to resemble equipped bunkers; and describes how Russian imperial ambitions are destabilizing countries from Estonia to Ukraine. With Chief executive Trump now intimidating to get away from America’s traditional role as upholder from the liberal globe purchase and guarantor from the contient’s protection, Europe could be alone in working with these unprecedented difficulties.
Based on extensive firsthand reporting, this book is a provocative, disturbing take a look at a continent in unforeseen crisis.
