Hur uppstod idén om Amerika, hur har den omformats genom historien, vart är den på väg? Kring dessa och liknande frågor kretsade Engelsbergsseminariet 2009. Vilka är komponenterna i den amerikanska idén? Hur förvaltas de i dagens USA? Hur reagerar resten av världen på dem? Sker idag en övergång till en post-amerikansk värld? Vem kommer i så fall att ta över USA:s ledande ställning? Indien? Kina? Och vad skulle det innebära? Vilka tankefigurer skulle då komma att prägla världen? Eller har USA chansen att bli kvar som herre på täppan? Bevittnar vi början på slutet för idén om Amerika eller befinner vi oss bara i början av en amerikansk era? Bland bidragsgivarna märks Anatol Lieven, Deepak Lal, Jong-Yil Ra, Edward Luce och Alan Wolfe.

NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER Douglas Murray, international bestselling author and renowned cultural commentator confronts what he views as the most pressing issue of our time: why Western support of the Palestinian cause is ultimately playing into the hands of a much more dangerous force. Drawing from intensive on-the-ground reporting in Israel, Gaza and Lebanon, Murray presents a compelling case that places the latest violence in its historical context. He takes readers on a harrowing journey through the aftermath of the 7 October 2023 massacre, piecing together exclusive accounts from victims, survivors and even the terrorists responsible for the atrocities. On Democracies and Death Cults argues that Israel’s commitment to fundamental Western values – capitalism, individual rights, democracy and reason – has made it a beacon of progress in a region dominated by authoritarianism and extremism. Murray contrasts Israel’s principles with the ideology of Hamas, which openly proclaims its love of death over life. If left unchecked, Murray argues, this misplaced Western sympathy could embolden forces that seek to undermine democratic values and perpetuate a culture of violence. Clear-eyed and deeply reasoned, On Democracies and Death Cults is a gripping and essential read for all who seek to understand the complexities of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict and its implications for the future of democracy – and for the world itself.
I boken Om demokratier och dödskulter går Douglas Murray rakt in i samtidens mest explosiva konflikt – och blottlägger en djupare kamp om värderingar, sanning och civilisationens framtid. Med skärpa, mod och intellektuell klarhet skriver Murray om förnuft och frihet, i en tid av ideologiskt mörkerGenom reportage direkt från Israel och Gaza sätter Murray det senaste våldet i ett historiskt sammanhang. Han tar med läsaren genom spillrorna efter massakern den 7 oktober, och pusslar ihop ögonvittnesskildringar från överlevare, anhöriga – och till och med från terroristerna själva. Men boken är mer än en reportagebok. Den sätter konflikten i sitt historiska och ideologiska sammanhang. Om demokratier och dödskulter visar hur Israels förankring i västerländska värderingar – kapitalism, individuella rättigheter, demokrati och förnuft – har gjort landet till en anomali i en region präglad av auktoritärt styre och extremism. Murray ställer dessa värderingar mot Hamas ideologi, som öppet hyllar döden framför livet. Om den västliga sympatin för detta förtryck inte upphör, varnar han, riskerar den att stärka krafter som vill underminera demokratin och normalisera våldets logik. Välgrundad, klarsynt och faktabaserad är Om demokratier och dödskulter en oumbärlig bok för alla som vill förstå det israelisk-palestinska krigets verkliga natur – och dess konsekvenser för demokratins framtid, både i Väst och i världen. Douglas Murray är brittisk författare, skribent och politisk kommentator, känd för sin eleganta stil, skarpa analys och ovilja att vika undan för obekväma sanningar. Han är grundande redaktör på The Spectator och har skrivit flera bästsäljande böcker, däribland Europas märkliga död och Kriget mot Väst. Hans texter och framträdanden har gjort honom till en av samtidens mest inflytelserika – och mest omdebatterade – röster i frågor om identitet, migration, kultur och yttrandefrihet. Nopolar Publishing har tidigare gett ut Kriget mot Väst av Douglas Murray.

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERIn his travels through Israel and Gaza, #1 International Bestselling author Douglas Murray has seen the best and the worst humanity has to offer, and he has no trouble choosing a side. Murray is not Jewish and before October 7, he had never lived in Israel. However, he objects to being lied to, and Israel has been on the receiving end of the biggest, deepest, longest lies in history. Israel's commitment to fundamental Western values--capitalism, individual rights, democracy, and reason--has made it a beacon of progress in a region dominated by authoritarianism and extremism. Israel's principles vividly contrast with the ideology of Hamas, which openly proclaims its love of death over life. With incisive moral clarity, On Democracies and Death Cults exposes how the campus left and international establishment confuse this conflict by: Calling on Israel for restraint and proportionality, while Hamas commits genocide. Slandering Israelis as white colonialists, while only a third of Israelis are Jews of European ancestry. Framing the conflict as oppressor vs. oppressed, when it is really between a thriving multi-ethnic democracy and a death cult bent on its annihilation. Drawing from intensive on-the-ground reporting in Israel, Gaza, and Lebanon, Douglas Murray places the latest violence in its proper historical context. He takes readers on a harrowing journey through the aftermath of the October 7 massacre, piecing together the exclusive accounts from victims, survivors, and even the terrorists responsible for the atrocities. If left unchecked, misplaced sympathy could embolden forces that seek to undermine not only Israel, but all of Western civilization.
I løbet af nogle få årtier er den vestlige tradition gået fra at være fejret til at være pinlig og anakronistisk og sluttelig til at være noget skamfuldt. Den vendte sig fra at være en fortælling, som skulle inspirere mennesker og nære dem i deres liv, til at være en fortælling, som skal udskamme mennesker. Og det var ikke blot begrebet ”vestlig”, som kritikere protesterede mod. Det var alt, som var forbundet med dette begreb. Endog ”civilisation”. Der er mange facetter af denne krig mod Vesten. Den udkæmpes på tværs af medierne og gennem hele uddannelsessystemet – så tidlig som i børnehaveklasserne. Den er meget udbredt i den bredere kultur, hvor alle vigtigere kulturinstitutioner enten er under pres eller frivilligt lægger afstand til deres egen fortid. For ofte fremstiller vi denne kamp helt forkert. Vi tillader os at betragte den som temporær eller som findende sted i periferien, eller vi affærdiger den som en kulturkrig. Vi misfortolker deltagernes mål, eller vi undervurderer den rolle, denne krig vil få i kommende generationers liv.(fra Douglas Murrays indledning til bogen)
En av världens främsta politiska författare är tillbaka med en bestseller. Douglas Murray visar i Kriget mot Väst hur hela den västerländska kulturen undermineras när den utsätts för en massiv kritik inifrån. Delar av kritiken må vara berättigad, men sammantaget förkastas allt vad den västerländska civilisationen har åstadkommit samtidigt som andra kulturer i stället oreserverat hyllas. Genom att lyfta fram aktuella händelser och diskussioner om historia, kultur, religion och etnicitet förklarar Murray hur ofta välmenande debattörer och människor låtit sig luras av en hycklande och inkonsekvent antivästerländsk retorik. Och att det inte bara är ohederliga akademiker som dragit nytta av detta intellektuella bedrägeri utan även andra fientligt inställda nationer, vars egna brott mot mänskligheten hamnar i skymundan. Om Väst ska överleva måste även dess kulturella framsteg framhållas och försvaras. Kriget mot Väst är inte bara en bok där dåraktiga argument bemöts utan också ett obevekligt stöd för hela den mänskliga civilisationens utveckling. Detta är en vår tids viktigaste böcker.
An exposé of the identity-group madness that transformed American campuses—and is now turning the Western world upside down. Gender ideology. The “anti-racism” craze. The #MeToo movement. Sanctuary cities. These are among the building blocks of our new “woke” world, which, during the last few years, seemed to explode out of nowhere. But it didn’t emerge from nowhere. It originated on the campuses of some of our most respected colleges and universities. Over the past several decades, more and more faculty members at those institutions have exchanged humanism for radicalism. Rejecting the search for truth, they’ve become purveyors of ideology. They’re no longer teachers, but propagandists; once devoted to the spread of knowledge, they now focus on power dynamics, seeing oppression everywhere and viewing everyone around them through the lens of group identity. Among the most egregious consequences of this intellectual transformation has been the increasing prominence and power of disciplines called “identity studies”—among them Women’s Studies, Black Studies, Queer Studies, and even more recently, Fat Studies and Whiteness Studies. In The Victims’ Revolution, Bruce Bawer gives us the first true history of this phenomenon. He takes us on a tour of the campuses, classrooms, and conferences where we see and hear professors proudly pushing these new orthodoxies. On every page, we can observe the origins of the virus that, in the past decade, has escaped from the ivory tower and infected the whole Western world.
SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER ‘The most important book of the year’ Daily Mail The brilliant and provocative new book from one of the world’s foremost political writers ‘The anti-Western 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? It’s become perfectly acceptable to celebrate the contributions of non-Western cultures, but discussing their flaws and crimes is called hate speech. What’s 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 much-needed 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 human-rights abusers hoping to distract from their ongoing villainy. In The War on the West, Douglas Murray shows the ways in which many well-meaning people have been lured into polarisation by lies, and shows how far the world’s 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 Murray’s status as one of the world’s foremost political writers.
Den 15. marts 2022 erklærede FN’s generalforsamling enstemmigt dagen for International Dag for Kamp mod Islamofobi. 15. marts vil således fremover være den dag, hvor psykologer og psykiatere verden over mobiliseres i indsatsen mod sygelig angst for islam. I ”Islamofili” anlægger den britiske samfundsdebattør Douglas Murray imidlertid et helt andet perspektiv, idet han undersøger ikke-muslimers beundring for – undertiden nærmende sig hengivenhed til – islam. I Vesten afstår mange toneangivende mennesker fra at kritisere islam. Det gør de af flere grunde: af frygt for at pådrage sig vrede fra ekstremistiske muslimer (Murray anfører nogle af dem, der er blevet ofre for et attentat eller et attentatforsøg), af frygt for at blive fremstillet som islamofober eller blot for at føje sig ind i tidsånden. Islamofili viser sig ikke mindst hos samfundseliten, og Murray bringer en lang række eksempler på prominente personer inden for politik og kultur, som har manifesteret deres islamofili. Resultatet af dette er, at islam som den eneste religion i Vesten er hævet over kritik. Det står i stærk kontrast til vor civilisations tradition for religionskritik, og det skaber betragtelige problemer i vore samfund.

An Instant New York Times Bestseller China has concentration camps now. Why do Westerners claim our sins are unique? It is now in vogue to celebrate non-Western cultures and disparage Western ones. Some of this is a much-needed reckoning, but much of it fatally undermines the very things that created the greatest, most humane civilization in the world. In The War on the West, Douglas Murray shows how many well-meaning people have been fooled by hypocritical and inconsistent anti-West rhetoric. After all, if we must discard the ideas of Kant, Hume, and Mill for their opinions on race, shouldn't we discard Marx, whose work is peppered with racial slurs and anti-Semitism? Embers of racism remain to be stamped out in America, but what about the raging racist inferno in the Middle East and Asia? It's not just dishonest scholars who benefit from this intellectual fraud but hostile nations and human rights abusers hoping to distract from their own ongoing villainy. Dictators who slaughter their own people are happy to jump on the "America is a racist country" bandwagon and mimic the language of antiracism and "pro-justice" movements as PR while making authoritarian conquests. If the West is to survive, it must be defended. The War on the West is not only an incisive takedown of foolish anti-Western arguments but also a rigorous new apologetic for civilization itself.
