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.

Douglas Murray skriver om en av samtidens mest explosiva konflikter, där han också 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 när ideologier vacklar.
Genom 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, skakande, klarsynt och faktabaserad är Om demokratier och dödskulter en oumbärlig bok för alla som vill förstå mer om Iran, mellanöstern och 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.

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.

THE SUNDAY TIMES NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER'Tremendous and shattering' - The Times'Powerful and engaging' - Literary ReviewThe Strange Death of Europe is a highly personal account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide.Declining birth-rates, mass immigration and cultivated self-distrust and self-hatred have come together to make Europeans unable to argue for themselves and incapable of resisting their own comprehensive change as a society.This book is not only an analysis of demographic and political realities, but also an eyewitness account of a continent in self-destruct mode. It includes reporting from across the entire continent, from the places where migrants land to the places they end up, from the people who appear to welcome them in to the places which cannot accept them. Told from this first-hand perspective, and backed with impressive research and evidence, the book addresses the disappointing failure of multiculturalism, the lack of repatriation and the Western fixation on guilt. Murray travels to Berlin, Paris, Scandinavia, Lampedusa and Greece to uncover the malaise at the very heart of the European culture, and to hear the stories of those who have arrived in Europe from far away. In each chapter he also takes a step back to look at the bigger issues which lie behind a continent’s death-wish, answering the question of why anyone, let alone an entire civilisation, would do this to themselves?He ends with two visions of Europe – one hopeful, one pessimistic – which paint a picture of Europe in crisis and offer a choice as to what, if anything, we can do next.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERA Times and Sunday Times Book of the YearUpdated with a new afterword by the author'Douglas Murray fights the good fight for freedom of speech ... A truthful look at today's most divisive issues' – Jordan B. Peterson '... Beyond brilliant and should be read, must be read, by everyone' – Richard Dawkins Are we living through the great derangement of our times?In The Madness of Crowds Douglas Murray investigates the dangers of ‘woke’ culture and the rise of identity politics. In lively, razor-sharp prose he examines the most controversial issues of our moment: sexuality, gender, technology and race, with interludes on the Marxist foundations of ‘wokeness’, the impact of tech and how, in an increasingly online culture, we must relearn the ability to forgive.One of the few writers who dares to counter the prevailing view and question the dramatic changes in our society – from gender reassignment for children to the impact of transgender rights on women – Murray’s penetrating book, now published with a new afterword taking account of the book's reception and responding to the worldwide Black Lives Matter protests, clears a path of sanity through the fog of our modern predicament.

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.

WITH A NEW FOREWORD AND REVISED INTRODUCTION'A superb biography ... full of compassion, perception' Roger Lewis, The Times 'I love this book. Douglas Murray is a genius' Rupert EverettLord Alfred Douglas, known as 'Bosie', son of the Marquess of Queensberry, was known as one of the most beautiful young men of his generation. Aged twenty-one he met and became the lover and subsequent obsession of Oscar Wilde.Their relationship caused a scandal in 1895 when Wilde took Queensberry, Douglas's aggressive father, to court for libel. When the details of their relationship were aired in court, Wilde was convicted of gross indecency and later imprisoned.Wilde's story is well known, but this is the first book to tell it fully from Douglas's perspective. Written, and originally published in 2000, with access to never-before-seen papers , Bosie explores the contradictions, tensions and turmoils of Douglas's life with Wilde and beyond as a poet, husband and father.This compelling biography uncovers the life of one of the most notorious figures in literary history, and its course from gilded beautiful youth to semi-reclusive outcast, at the time of Douglas's death in 1945.
