Synopsis :

This groundbreaking book explores how the transition from racially homogeneous white majorities to racially hybrid majorities is driving the rise of populism and reshaping conservative thought.

"An important book that challenges the conventional wisdom on controlling immigration and fighting racism." --W. James Antle III, The American Conservative

"A big, brilliant, ambitious book--perhaps the first truly definitive book of the Trump era. Meticulous, challenging, and provocative." --Shadi Hamid, Senior Fellow, Brookings Institution and author of Islamic Exceptionalism

"Presents compelling arguments that defenders of asymmetric multiculturalism should be prepared to answer." --New York Magazine

"Whiteshift" is defined as the turbulent journey from a world of racially homogeneous white majorities to one of racially hybrid majorities. In this data-driven study, political scientist Eric Kaufmann explores how these demographic changes across Western societies are transforming their politics.

Kaufmann examines the evidence to explore ethnic change in North American and Western Europe. Tracing four ways of dealing with this transformation--fight, repress, flight, and join--he makes a persuasive call to move beyond empty talk about national identity.

Deeply thought provoking, enriched with illustrative stories, and drawing on detailed and extraordinary survey, demographic, and electoral data, Whiteshift will redefine the way we discuss race in the twenty-first century.

A native of Vancouver, British Columbia, he was born in Hong Kong and spent eight years in Tokyo and is now professor of politics at Birkbeck College, University of London.
