Le Dérèglement du monde: Quand nos civilisations s'épuisent

Résumé

Born into the Christian minority in Lebanon and since settled in France, Amin Maalouf claims a unique position in global conversation. His first book, The Crusades Through Arab Eyes, was a critical and commercial success and remains in print after twenty years. In Disordered World, Maalouf combines his command of history with a critical perspective on contemporary culture, East and West-joining them with a fierce moral clarity and a propulsive style. Examining tensions between the Arab and Western worlds, Maalouf sees something beyond a "clash of civilizations.
