Exploring the tension between secularism and Christianity, the book delves into the historical context of Western civilization post-World War II. Christopher Dawson critiques the selective amnesia regarding Europe's Christian roots, particularly in the formation of the European constitution. He expresses a vision for a unified Europe grounded in shared Christian values rather than impersonal economic forces, highlighting the unease of the era and the challenges of building a cohesive identity amidst the remnants of conflict.
