A Changing World: Patriotism Against a Globalist Agenda

by César Vidal

On December 26, 1991, an event of extraordinary importance in universal history took place.   It involved the dissolution of the Soviet Union, an event of enormous repercussions that almost no one had anticipated. In fact, only the historian Andrei Amalrík1 and Nobel laureate and writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn,2 two Russian dissidents, had enough courage and vision to forecast that such a seismic event would take place.  Although it is indisputable that the Cold War had come to an end, there are more than a few who intend to continue analyzing the current global situation from the perspective of a historical period that ended four decades ago. Claiming to understand the present with the paradigms of the Cold War-even to a large extent with those espoused by the Left and Right-is a very serious mistake with consequences that are extremely harmful. History has continued to move forward, and just as it would have been foolish to claim to understand Europe of the end of the nineteenth century on the basis of what life was like for Napoleon, who was finally dethroned in 1815; it is absurd, and even ridiculous, to try to understand our world on the basis of what the Cold War entailed. In the first part of the present work, we will take into account the analysis of democracy as a recent and often failed regime, as well as consider the dangers that now threaten its very survival. The second part is devoted to the globalist agenda, which constitutes a real threat that seeks to destroy national sovereignty, the power of the Sates, and the democratic system itself. Finally, the third paints a global picture of how reactions are already perceived in light of this globalist agenda, although not all of them lead to a future of freedom, and, certainly, the human race runs a true and real risk of being subjected to totalitarian systems of various kinds. We invite you on this journey with The World is Changing.

Well, this was an unexpected gem. I can’t imagine why more people haven’t spotted it, apart from the fact that the author is Spanish, and so doesn’t frame every reference from an American point of view.
I discovered it quite by accident, whilst searching on Amazon specifically for books on this subject. (I’ve come to the conclusion recently that globalism vs patriotism is a more useful debate than right vs left or conservative vs liberal).
This book is extensively and meticulously researched, and makes its points in clear and logical language. It also takes the time to explain many issues (from the history of Freemasonry to the fall of the Soviet Union) in high level but sensible timelines that provide excellent background.
I was surprised at how even handed and thoughtful much of this book was. For example, it’s probably the first time I’ve read about Putin without him being portrayed as a Bond villain. The author is patient and reasonable enough to explain why that’s not the case.
Okay, so I’ll never be sold on Vidal’s objection to abortion, but he’s joined a massive number of dots for me that I always kind of suspected might be related, such as the historic links between Catholicism and poverty.
This is a useful wake-up call for anyone with a functional level of political and social literacy. It’s a great work of anti-woke knowledge that more people should know about.
