Скачать или смотреть Europe and the Middle East Podcast: 'Eurabia’ and the Great Replacement

Europe in the Middle East is a bi-monthly podcast addressing matters of significance to both regions, including their multi-faceted relations.

In this first launching episode titled “‘Eurabia’ and the Great Replacement," hosts Alain Gresh and Thomas Serres have a conversation with Liz Fekete on the theories promoted by far-right thinkers Bat Ye’or and Renaud Camus, their origin and growing normalization in European political discourses. They also discuss the appropriation of these conspiracy-oriented narratives by far-right terrorists in Europe (and beyond) as well as their connection with the American notion of "white genocide.”
