Suicide of France: The Quiet Revolution That Destroyed a Nation (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781641775052)

After Charles de Gaulle's death in 1970, France's new leaders launched a quiet revolution. Under the guise of guiding the country into a new progressive era, they destroyed everything that had made it great. Éric Zemmour's The Suicide of France pulls back the veil on their project, showing the contempt France's new leaders had for her culture, heritage, and institutions.These new leaders destroyed the strong presidential republican system that de Gaulle had built, replacing it with the government of activist judges. They attacked the authority of the father figure, replacing him with the hollow, feminized man of managerial society. And despite their constant expressions of disdain for the United States, they imported the worst of its post-60s multicultural and economic revolutions into France to replace her people and ways. Step-by-step, episode-by-episode, Zemmour describes the devious stratagems and devices that eroded the soul of a once-great nation.Released in 2014, The Suicide of France became a runaway bestseller, turning its author into one of the most famous--and infamous--writers and political figures in France. Now available for the first time in English, this edition includes a new introduction and conclusion. Zemmour reflects on what has happened in France over the past decade. He recounts why he jumped from writer to politician, running for president of France in 2022 and founding a new political party, Reconquête!. Finally, he reflects on the precarious situation of France and the United States today as they struggle to preserve their shared civilization.
