A proposito di questo titolo
“Kendi argues brilliantly that we must work across race and class lines to eradicate social ills and eliminate fascism.”—Los Angeles Times
NAMED ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED BOOKS OF 2026 BY: The New York Times, Oprah Daily, LitHub, Foreign Policy, The Millions
Recall the words chanted in Charlottesville, Virginia: “You will not replace us!” Recall the string of mass shooters across the globe—in Oslo, Christchurch, Buffalo, El Paso, and Pittsburgh—who claimed their crimes were a defense against “White genocide.” Recall business and media figures cultivating anxiety and furor over demographic change. These incidents only scratch the surface: Popular and ruling politicians in every region of the world have expressed some version of great replacement theory, eroding democratic norms in the name of preventing demographic change.
The term was coined in 2011 by a French novelist who argued that Black and Brown immigrants were “invading” Europe, brought by shadowy elites to “replace” the White population. From there, politicians and theorists in the United States and elsewhere repackaged it as a story of “globalists” welcoming “migrant criminals” and promoting diversity to take away the jobs, cultures, electoral power, and very lives of White people. Over time, great replacement theory has expanded those under threat to include citizens, men, Jews, Christians, heterosexuals, and ethnic majorities in countries as distinct as Russia, El Salvador, Brazil, Italy, and India, all targeted with the message that they are facing an existential attack that only a strongman can prevent.
In Chain of Ideas, internationally bestselling author Ibram X. Kendi offers an unsettling but indispensable global history of how great replacement theory brought humanity into this authoritarian age—and how we can free ourselves from it.
Recensioni della critica
“Kendi narrows his scope to the ‘great replacement’ conspiracy theory and then broadens it by tracing the theory’s ties to authoritarianism worldwide.”—The New York Times
“As anti-immigrant sentiment soars around the world, Ibram X. Kendi, the National Book Award-winning historian of racism, charts the rise of the “great replacement” conspiracy theory.”—Foreign Policy
“In a meticulously researched 500 pages, [Chain of Ideas] lays out an essential framework for parsing current events. . . . [It] is an ambitious book that covers a lot of ground, intellectual and geographical. . . . Kendi has produced a worthwhile and accessible book [that] helps us to interpret current events [and] also offers a modicum of hope.”—The Guardian
“Kendi writes that great replacement theory is the ‘world’s most dangerous idea’ as those in power use it to justify creating a white, Christian state by any means necessary.”—The Root
“It’s hard not to conclude from Chain of Ideas that the most violently disturbed people are being sicced on us by elected leaders.”—New York
“Kendi argues brilliantly that we must work across race and class lines to eradicate social ills and eliminate fascism.”—Los Angeles Times
“[Kendi’s] gift for connecting the dots and pointing out common tactics and talking points in disparate places is eye-opening and sobering. . . . Readers of Kendi’s How to Be an Antiracist and other pathbreaking works will be eager for his salient take on encroaching authoritarian strategies.”—Booklist
“As anti-immigrant sentiment soars around the world, Ibram X. Kendi, the National Book Award–winning historian of racism, charts the rise of the ‘great replacement’ conspiracy theory.”—Foreign Policy
“[Kendi] has a gift for tracing how historical ideas metastasize into present, real-world damage . . . Kendi reveals the mechanics behind the myth, and why confronting it is now a democratic necessity.”—Oprah Daily
“Sure to be bracing.”—Literary Hub
“The National Book Award winner tackles the ‘great replacement theory.’”—The Millions
“An exploration of the arguably premier racist trope of our time . . . A well-formed argument against the fashionably fascist thought that houses old wine in new skins.”—Kirkus Reviews
