#80: Eric Kaufmann, Whiteshift: Populism, Immigration and the Future of White Majorities

Eric Kaufmann (@kpkaufm) is my guest today. He’s a professor of politics at Birkbeck College, University of London, and he was one of the first people to join Heterodox Academy. We’ll be talking about his book Whiteshift: Populism, Immigration, and the Future of White Majorities. It’s about how the cultural and ethnic transformation of English-speaking nations, especially the United States, that has threatened many citizens who have a white identity. He suggests a number of ways of dealing with this transformation including his preferred solution multivocalism, which he contrasts with multiculturalism.

I'm an American Hispanic, and worried about what's gonna happen to my white friends once they lose the majority here. This is very enlightening.

Lol. What would happen to them?

It’s not necessarily about what’s going to happen to them. Like, I don’t think there’ll be war or anything.
It’s just more so the fact the the society will lose its majority.
Meaning there won’t be actually any majority demographic in the country.
Kind of like Yugoslavia.
You DON’T want to be like Yugoslavia.

@@aurora3067 Yugoslavia had a civil war, which split the country into ethnic zones. That's probably the best outcome for the Americans.

Only Some parts of Yugoslavia had a war.
Montenegro and Macedonia left completely peacefully.
