Forlagsbeskrivelse af The Past Is a Future Country af Edward Dutton
Since the 1960s, the West has moved ever-leftwards. ''Equality'' and "˜feelings"™ are central to the New Religion that rejects all traditional values. Yet beneath the institutionally dominant "˜Left"™ stews a growing and restless "˜Right"™. How has this fractured situation come about? What will the future hold? In The Past is a Future Country, the authors trace it back to the Industrial Revolution. Darwinian selection massively weakened, meaning that, for the first time in history, the selfish, sick and stupid could survive and reproduce, undermining our religious, group-oriented culture. Now the West is scourged by an epidemic of narcissists, competing to signal their individuality and moral superiority. But their "˜fight for equality"™ is really a fight for self-promotion. Reflecting this runaway individualism, Westerners increasingly don"™t have children, save for those who are genetically resistant to this onslaught "” the staunchly conservative and religious: the eventual inheritors of the earth. But there is a dark storm brewing in the demographic data that the authors have analysed. There is a burgeoning growth in the population of exceptionally unintelligent and antisocial people that social welfare systems cannot sustain for much longer. The developed world will pass away, and the global population that depends on it will crash, in the greatest Malthusian Collapse of all time. Yet all is not lost. The authors show how a resistant class of intelligent, religious conservatives will band together to preserve enclaves of civilization that may survive most of the coming apocalypse, and from its ashes rebuild a new world: A Neo-Byzantium.
