Europe as we know it is changing rapidly. The changes will speed up during the coming century, imo
This process has multiple causes some of which, I believe, include:
- Two decimating world wars that killed millions and millions of people everywhere, including Europe.
- Massive guilt complexes that flowed from this and from the colonisation by European states of Africa, the ME and Asia in previous centuries.
- The influence of communist and socialist ideologies that built on this guilt and and on class envy. NB I believe in democratic societies that look after their poor, disabled and deprived.
- The break down of the old regimes such as the Austro- Hungarian Empire. NB I am not in favour of this sort of government.
- The contraceptive pill and the decline of religious belief. NB I am an atheist and believe in a woman's right to control her body and fertility.
- The open borders policies motivated by some of the above causes ie guilt.
I am sure there are other reasons and would be interested to know what people think.
