About this listen
The Strange Death of Europe is a highly personal account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide. Declining birth rates, mass immigration, and cultivated self-distrust and self-hatred have come together to make Europeans unable to argue for themselves and incapable of resisting their own comprehensive alteration as a society and an eventual end.
This is not just an analysis of demographic and political realities; it is also an eyewitness account of a continent in self-destruct mode. It includes accounts based on travels across the entire continent, from the places where migrants land to the places they end up, from the people who pretend they want them to the places which cannot accept them.
Murray takes a step back at each stage and looks at the bigger and deeper issues which lie behind a continent's possible demise, from an atmosphere of mass terror attacks to the steady erosion of our freedoms. The audiobook addresses the disappointing failure of multiculturalism, Angela Merkel's U-turn on migration, the lack of repatriation, and the Western fixation on guilt. Murray travels to Berlin, Paris, Scandinavia, Lampedusa, and Greece to uncover the malaise at the very heart of the European culture and to hear the stories of those who have arrived in Europe from far away.
This sharp and incisive audiobook ends up with two visions for a new Europe - one hopeful, one pessimistic - which paint a picture of Europe in crisis and offer a choice as to what, if anything, we can do next. But perhaps Spengler was right: 'civilizations, like humans, are born, briefly flourish, decay, and die'.

Story
Totalitarianism is not a coincidence and does not form in a vacuum. It arises from a collective psychosis that has followed a predictable script throughout history. In The Psychology of Totalitarianism, world-renowned Professor of Clinical Psychology Mattias Desmet deconstructs the societal conditions that allow this collective psychosis to take hold. By looking at our current situation and identifying the phenomenon of “mass formation”—a type of collective hypnosis—he clearly illustrates how close we are to surrendering to totalitarian regimes.

Story
If you don’t understand communist revolutions, you aren’t ready for what’s coming. The old rules are over. The old order is over. Accusations are evidence. Activism means bigotry and hate. Criminals are allowed to roam free. Citizens are locked up. An appetite for vengeance is unleashed—to deplatform, debank, destroy. This is the daily news, yet none of it’s new. Patterns from the past make sense of our present. They also foretell a terrifying future we might be condemned to endure.

I remained a Democrat for twenty years, albeit with an independent streak." Today that party is unrecognizable.

Cold calling is painful and uncomfortable for every single salesperson on Earth. The average seller makes a couple dials, hits 6 voicemails, and gives up the moment a prospect hits them with a nasty objection. But every time you decide to pick up the phone in spite of the suck, you separate yourself from the folks who quit. That's when you get ahead on the leaderboard. Cold calling sucks. And that's why it works. While most books are a 400-page exercise in academia, we have 4 promises to make this the most actionable sales book you've ever heard of.

For as long as we’ve studied human cognition, we’ve believed that our senses give us direct access to the world. What we see is what’s really there—or so the thinking goes. But new discoveries in neuroscience and psychology have turned this assumption on its head. What if rather than perceiving reality passively, your mind actively predicts it?

Since September 11, 2001, the Western world has been preoccupied with Islam and its role in terrorism. Yet, public debate about the faith is polarized. One camp praises "the religion of peace", while the other claims all Muslims are terrorists. Canadian human rights activist Yasmine Mohammed believes both sides are dangerously wrong. In Unveiled: How Western Liberals Empower Radical Islam, Yasmine speaks her truth as a woman born in the Western world yet raised in a fundamentalist Islamic home. Despite being a first-generation Canadian, she never felt at home in the West.

Powerful, ominous, incising
Murray minces no words in describing what is at stake for Europe, and indeed any culture or civilization, which fails to understand itself, both positive and negative. Murray poses tough questions—the most poignant of which my be, why is it that no one seems to want to tackle how much Europe is and has changed because of mass, uncontrolled migration, and how it seemingly walked into this change so blindly? It might be light on proposals, and can feel a bit repetitive at times, but a reasonable person should walk away from this read wondering why too few care about, and seemingly too many desire, this strange death of Europe

A powerful voice for reason
I found this book to be a much needed commentary on the state of the Europe and in general western democracies and how blindly following this globalist ideology is leading to a real perilous situation.
Wanting to be compassionate, caring , generous and charitable to others in need is a goal we should all strive for.
It needs to be balanced with whats sustainable, integration and support and costs and fairness needs to be apart of this conversation. In Canada we're abit farther behind on the curve on the impacts of not being prepaired, but there are so many lessons we can learn from looking at Europe that we should learn and heed before we make the same mistakes. #Audible1

As usual interesting and though provoking. good choice for orator similar to Murray's tone so it's easy to hear Dougas reading it but different enough to know it isn't him. Somehow that makes it seem less like a lecture and more like a book.

Well written but a very sad reality for Europe.
I live in Canada our politicians are doing the same thing here and I fear we're going to face the same reality as Europe somewhere down the line. Why don't politicians listen to the people that built the country This is our home our lives our families we don't owe the world anything but we owe our family's everything

A warning of the damage caused by weak leaders
These are problems caused by leaders not leading, but trying to be nice and worrying more about their short term rather than long term legacy.
They had a duty to pass on the Europe they inherited, and they have failed abysmally.
