Prag: Kriza zapadne kulture
Prague – The Crisis of Western Culture analyzes the causes of the social, political, and ecological crisis of the West and calls for a change in values and the creation of a more just, sustainable, and humane society.
Prag: The Crisis of Western Culture by Thom Hartmann is a non-fiction book in which the author explores the deep causes of contemporary social, economic and environmental problems of Western civilization. Starting from the historical development of Western societies, Hartmann claims that excessive individualism, unlimited pursuit of economic growth, concentration of political and economic power and distance from nature have led to a crisis affecting almost all aspects of life.
The author connects topics such as economic inequality, the collapse of democratic institutions, consumer culture, climate change and the weakening of the sense of community. He believes that the modern way of life is not sustainable in the long term and calls for a reconsideration of the values that shape Western culture. Instead of competition and unlimited consumption, he advocates greater social responsibility, cooperation, environmental protection and strengthening of local communities.
Hartmann bases his conclusions on historical examples, social analysis and philosophical reflections, trying to show how today's challenges are interconnected. The book is not only a criticism of the current situation, but also a call to change the way of thinking and the search for new models of development that would enable a fairer, more stable and sustainable society for future generations.
