Boaventura presents his new book

In The End of Europe as We Know It, Boaventura de Sousa Santos invites us to question the history of the continent and its transformation over time. From its former peripheral status to its consolidation as a global power, Europe has been shaped by colonialism, world wars and, more recently, by conflicts such as the one between Russia and Ukraine.

Written between 2022 and 2024, this book not only reviews the great historical milestones that have defined the continent, but also analyzes its uncertain present. Are we on the brink of a new world war? What role do the media play in the construction of hegemonic discourse? With a critical eye, Boaventura puts these questions on the table, highlighting how pacifist and dissident voices are often left out of public debate.

More than a historical review, this work is an invitation to understand the current world through a different perspective. An essential read for those seeking to go beyond official versions and explore the complexities of Europe's role on the global stage.
