Pat Buchanan vs. Steven Pinker

The two big books of the moment are Steven Pinkerâ??s The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined and Pat Buchananâ??s Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?. Pinker argues that the future belongs increasingly to peaceful cosmopolitan globalism, while Buchanan claims that ethnonationalismâ??s universal appeal can ultimately lead to national stabilization.
