From an interview with the author of “The Strange Death of Europe.”
Why do you speak of “strange” death of Europe?
Nobody would have expected it to be like that. In France, the title has been translated as “the suicide of Europe.” It’s strange because it’s amazing.
What’s killing it?
Two facts, together. First: mass immigration, which is completely changing Europe. Italy knows well what we are talking about.
The other?
What we Europeans are doing to ourselves: it is strange that a civilization totally changes itself, on the cultural, philosophical and religious level, without opposition. What struck me is that, after the book’s release, there has been much debate on the issue of immigration; while the questions I ask about what we Europeans are doing to ourselves, our values and our tradition, have not raised criticism. This worries me: it means that everything is true.
Or that nobody cares?
Both things. It is difficult to deny what I say about European civilization at sunset, but then we must ask ourselves: what do we do?
