In this data-driven study, political scientist Eric Kaufmann explores how these demographic changes across Western societies are transforming their politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe early stages of this transformation have led to a populist disruption, tearing a path through the usual politics of left and right. If we want to avoid more radical political divisions, Kaufmann argues, we have to enable white conservatives as well as cosmopolitans to view whiteshift as a positive development. Kaufmann examines the evidence to explore ethnic change in North American and Western Europe. Tracing four ways of dealing with this transformation--fight, repress, flight, and join--he makes a persuasive call to move beyond empty talk about national identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeeply thought provoking, enriched with illustrative stories, and drawing on detailed and extraordinary survey, demographic, and electoral data, \u003ci\u003eWhiteshift\u003c\/i\u003e will redefine the way we discuss race in the twenty-first century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eric Kaufmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1468316974\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781468316971\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harry N.
