In this episode, we explore the complexities of identity politics, freedom of speech, and cultural conflicts on university campuses. Professor Doug Stokes is the author of the book, "Against Decolonisation: Campus Culture Wars and the Decline of the West"
We discuss the book's key arguments, offering insights into the impact of decolonising theories within British institutions, particularly UK universities. Professor Doug Stokes critiques the rise of "wokery" and intersectionality, providing a critical perspective on these ideologies.
We also delve into the relationship between geopolitics and a nation's self-identity, discussing how the West's unique values and its diverse, multicultural society play a pivotal role in today's ever-evolving global landscape.
