"Almost overnight what had been considered a minor problem on a local level is becoming a major political issue, for there is growing resistance on the part of the native population, who resent becoming strangers in their own homelands."

• Half of all female scientists in Germany are childless.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN a falling birthrate collides with uncontrolled immigration? The Last Days of Europe explores how a massive influx from Asia. Africa, and the Middle East has loaded Europe with a burgeoning population of immigrants, many of whom have no wish to be integrated into European societies, but make full use of the host nations' generous free social services.
One of the master historians of twentieth-century Europe. Walter Laqueur is renowned for his "gold standard" studies of fascism, terrorism, and anti-Semitism. Here he describes how unplanned immigration policies and indifference coinciding with internal political and social crises have led to a continent-wide identity crisis. "Self-ghettoization" by immigrant groups has caused serious social and political divisions and intense resentment and xenophobia among native Europeans. Worse, widespread educational failure resulting in massive youth unemployment and religious or ideological disdain for the host country have bred extremist violence, as seen in the London and Madrid bombings and the Paris riots.
Laqueur believes that Europe's part in world affairs will be modest in years to come in view of its

internal weaknesses, but expresses hope that it will still be more than a mere museum of past cultural achievements for the amusement of well-to-do Asian tourists. He urges European policy makers to maintain strict controls over the abuse of democratic freedoms by preachers of hate and to promote education, productive work, and integration among the new immigrants.
Written with deep concern and cool analysis by a European-born historian with a gift for explaining complex subjects, this lucid, unflinching survey will be a must-read for everyone interested in international politics and the so-called clash of civilizations. Vissza
