‘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. Conversely, it has become acceptable to discuss the flaws and crimes of Western culture, but celebrating their contributions is also called hate speech.

While some of this reflects a much-needed reckoning, much of it is part of a larger international attack on reason, democracy, science, progress, and the citizens of the West—driven by dishonest scholars, hatemongers, hostile nations, and human-rights abusers seeking to distract from their ongoing villainy.

In The War on the West, Douglas Murray:

Exposes how well-meaning individuals have been drawn into polarisation by lies.
Reveals how critical political debates across Europe and America have been hijacked.

Propelled by 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.

Douglas Murray's book On Democracies and Death Cults was a No.1 Sunday Times bestseller w/c 2025-04-07.
