Sinossi
In pochi anni, alla fine del XX secolo, l'Europa è diventata una società multietnica: senza alcuna programmazione, senza una guida politica. Su 375 milioni di europei, ben 40 milioni vivono fuori dal loro paese d'origine: in quasi tutte le città europee, gli immigrati sono più del 10%.
La maggior parte arriva dall'Africa, dall'Asia, dall'America Latina. Ma questi immigrati ? che hanno culture e tradizioni molto diverse dalle nostre ? in quale misura sono assimilabili? E che cosa succederà degli "indigeni" europei, con il loro basso tasso di natalità? E in particolare, quale può essere il rapporto con una minoranza di 20 milioni di persone, culturalmente coesa, come quella musulmana? Il problema dell'identità e del futuro delle nazioni europee non era mai stato esplorato con altrettanta lucidità.

The more time you spend with Christopher Caldwell and his all-over-the-map musings on his conviction that we should all be afraid, very afraid, of the danger presented by each and every Muslim in the world, the more you start to wonder if he is not in fact playing some kind of Stephen Colbert angle
I read some of the other readers' comments on the book. Its interesting that the people who rated it with 4 or 5 stars didn't exactly get warm fuzzy notions from the information therein. But the people who said it wasn't a good book called the author a racist xenophobic liar. This book poses some re Leggi tutto
Good overview of the history of mass immigration to Europe and an analysis of the effects and pitfalls of this phenomenon, especially regarding the mass immigration of Muslim people from third world countries. Book was published in 2009, so it doesn’t anticipate the severity of the current situation Leggi tutto
I could almost have cut and pasted the official book description into this review and left it at that, since the book description says it very clearly. The Europe we have known is disappearing and what replaces it is, as yet, an unknown quantity. The future is up for grabs and there are numerous cul Leggi tutto
Caldwell’s book has been one of the most interesting, well researched, thought provoking, and frightening books I have read in quite awhile. Besides commentating on the economic problems, the rise in crime because of Muslim immigration, and the threat of terrorism related to Muslim immigrants. Caldw Leggi tutto
