This book took the task of conceptualising Western civilisation in
the 21st century. It examines Western Civilisation and its
encounters from a viewpoint of the impact of rising Global
civilisations in the 21st century. This political and technological
success of Western civilisation in the last 500 years triggered a
dream of spreading around the globe Democracy and liberal
Capitalism. Western society was held together by Christian morality
(regardless whether someone was a believer or a non-believer or
agnostic). The medicine for all shortcomings faced by Western
civilisation in the 21st century is offered by Al Gore in his book
"The Future: Six Drivers of Global Change" (2013). He thinks that
inventions and technology will save Western civilisation. The
author of this book argues that vice versa, the rise of certain
technologies are the main reason for the decline of Western
civilisation. These kind of issues will be investigated in this
book and the message is not optimistic, since Westerners, when are
poor are wise, and when are better off are stupid. Hence, without
practicing wisdom, Western civilisation cannot be revived.
