The Guardian has published a review of Owen Jones's new book 'The Fall of the West', describing it as a bracing history of the changing world order. The reviewer highlights the book's critique of western indifference to international law, citing Keir Starmer's cautious public statements as what it calls an ignominious example of that attitude. Readers are sharing and debating the argument that western powers are losing moral and geopolitical standing.
Why now: The book's argument about western decline and its criticism of prominent political figures is prompting discussion about the shifting world order.
