    The Imminent Collapse of America and of the Whole Western Civilization

    About this ebook

    In the 5000 years of the history that we know, great empires grew and fell according to certain patterns that repeat themselves like laws of nature. The USA rose and grew to prominence in the world, reached its zenith in 1945 with the military victory and with the atom bomb, but is not destined to stay there forever.

    The book tries to draw the attention to the signs of decadence that match the patterns of the decadence of previous empires in history, and the patterns of growth, of progress in other cultural milieus: very few pundits in America, and in the western media in general, seem to be aware of this fact.

    The birth rates keep diminishing in America, and are very low in Europe. In other civilisations the birth rates have been high, and those countries count more in the world today, politically and economically, than a few generations ago. In addition, the irrational and passionate attitude of those peoples, including the aggressive suicidal attitude with religious and political connotations, is a sign of progress for them.

    Those people who are in favour of family planning programs and of a more relaxed morality are acting against the general interests of their countries.

    Author

    Angelo Bertolo

    Prof. Angelo Bertolo was born in 1939 in the north eastern region of Italy, Friuli, attended classical studies and got degrees from the Catholic University of Milan and the University of Toronto. His main interests have been in history from a very comprehensive point of view: classical and European history first of all, but also the Asian civilizations, India in particular, the Semitic peoples of the Bible and ancient peoples as per archaeological studies. He likes to compare happenings and situations from the past and the present as did Machiavelli, and to find patterns in the evolution of societies in the wake of G. B. Vico and Charles Darwin.
