The Crisis of Culture : Identity Politics and the Empire of Norms

 

The Crisis of Culture by Olivier Roy explores how modern societies are experiencing deep cultural tensions. Roy argues that today’s conflicts are less about traditional religion or politics and more about identity, norms, and personal values. He explains how globalization, individualism, and the decline of shared cultural frameworks have transformed debates about culture, morality, and belonging.

The book examines identity politics, secularism, and the growing influence of universal norms, offering a thought-provoking analysis of contemporary Western societies.
