What if the West, which we often perceive as a united bloc, was in fact deeply fractured? *The Two Wests: How the Empire Betrayed the Enlightenment* takes you on a fascinating intellectual journey, challenging the illusion of a homogeneous Western civilisation. Far from being a simple historical analysis, this book explores the complex forces that have shaped two distinct worldviews, each with its own cultural identities, economic strategies and ideological foundations.The book delves into the heart of historical divisions, tracing the divergences between Western and Eastern Europe, marked by Greco-Roman legacies, Orthodoxy and contrasting experiences of colonisation. It examines how major geopolitical confrontations, from world wars to the Cold War, have contributed to fragmenting the West into rival spheres of influence. The analysis extends to the striking cultural contrasts and divergent economic strategies that continue to widen the gap between these two worlds.This book offers a sharp insight into the most pressing contemporary challenges, from rising populism to the silent ideological struggle playing out on the world stage. It invites you to reflect critically on the philosophical roots of our thinking, the tensions between science and faith, nationalism and universalism, and the need to reinvent a shared humanism in the face of the challenges of globalised capitalism.*The Two Wests* is a call to action. It provides new insights into global issues and encourages constructive dialogue aimed at overcoming antagonisms. It is essential reading for anyone who wants to deconstruct simplistic perceptions and help build a more just and harmonious future.
