Drawing On History, Anthropology, And Politics, And Bringing To Bear Examples Ranging From The Murder Of Theo Van Gogh To The French Ban On Headscarves, Todorov Argues That The West Must Overcome Its Fear Of Islam If It Is To Avoid Betraying The Values It Claims To Protect. True Freedom, Todorov Explains, Requires Us To Strike A Delicate Balance Between Protecting And Imposing Cultural Values, Acknowledging The Primacy Of The Law, And Yet Strenuously Protecting Minority Views That Do Not Interfere With Its Aims. Adding Force To Todorov'S Arguments Is His Own Experience As A Native Of Communist Bulgaria: His Admiration Of French Civic Identityand Western Freedomis Vigorous But Nonnativist, An Inclusive Vision Whose Very Flexibility Is Its Core Strength.The Record Of A Penetrating Mind Grappling With A Complicated, Multifaceted Problem, The Fear Of Barbarians Is A Powerful, Important Booka Call, Not To Arms, But To Thought.
