Boaventura de Sousa Santos invites us to reflect on the historical transformation of Europe in his new work “The End of Europe as We Know It”. He approaches the topic from its position as a peripheral region to becoming a central player on the global stage, a change that has been shaped by colonialism and devastating world wars. Written between 2022 and 2024, the book not only examines the impact of these historical events, but also addresses the current war between Russia and Ukraine, raising questions about the possibility of a Third World War. Boaventura offers us a critical look at how global conflicts have influenced modern Europe and invites us to consider the narratives that predominate in the media, where critical and pacifist voices are often marginalized. This book is essential reading for those seeking to understand the complexities of today's world and the role Europe plays in it. Don't miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in the ideas of Boaventura de Sousa Santos and explore this profound analysis of our contemporary reality. Get the book here
