Understanding 'The Clash of Civilizations' by Samuel P. Huntington

In this episode, we explore Samuel P. Huntington's influential work 'The Clash of Civilizations.' Originally a lecture in 1992, it evolved into a highly debated article and later a book that has shaped discussions on global politics for decades. We unpack Huntington's core arguments, including the shift from ideological to cultural conflicts, the concept of civilizational fault lines, and the difference between modernization and Westernization. We also discuss torn countries, the West's strategic agenda, and the guidelines Huntington proposed for peace in a multi-civilizational world. Join us as we examine why these ideas remain relevant today and what they mean for our collective future.
