Where to start with this guy? Clash of Civilisations or

>>8753366
Clash of Civilizations was decently argued, I think. The European New Right churning out so many derivative works is a bit much though. Political Order in Changing Societies is much more dense, and I haven't gotten through much of it, but it is a very relevant topic and its good to get his perspective.

Huntington is so outdated and his ideas are rejected by most academics who actually serious about studying globalization. https://www.thenation.com/article/clash-ignorance/

>having such a spooked understanding of culture
This isn't about political correctness it's about actually understanding the postmodern world we live in. Huntington acts like these "civilizations" are actual things that exist, as if all the people in these civilizations are doomed to be defined by it. Globalization isn't some clash of "cultures", it's immensely complex, creative, and diversifying process. Yes there's friction in the meeting of cultures that need to be dealt with but they don't justify such a ridiculously simple worldview. Unspook yourself /pol/tard

Shared currency, laws, borders, history, language?

Yes those exist but they aren't forces outside of the individuals that make up them, use them, know them. The people there aren't just part of some super-organism, they all have agency, independence, freedom. They bring to it diversity, complexity, and heterogeneity, and all of that is constantly being influenced by globalization and peoples' connections to the world (unless you're in somewhere that's not afftected, which is becoming less and less places)
