About Suicide of The West
Suicide of the West: An Essay on the Meaning and Destiny of Liberalism is a 1964 book by the American political philosopher James Burnham. The book provides a critique of liberal proceduralism, arguing it is not a solution to the problems facing Western civilization. Burhnam contends that liberalism is "syndrome" which will facilitiate the eventual collapse of Western Society and the rise of the total state. Suicide of the West remains influential among American conservatives, with Matthew Continetti calling Burnham's observations "...a dramatic modification of the way Americans understood democracy."
