The Poverty of Multiculturalism par Patrick West
I don't normally give 5 stars to Right Wing Books but this was the exception. Patrick West wonderfully explains how no Nation State is immune from a history of Slavery or ethnic hatred, that Multiculturalism instead of helping cultures learn from each other has caused ghettoisation and resentment as overlooked groups look onto financially privileged groups.
This Review is off the top of my head and just to get something written.
A great book from an unexpected source.

Conspicuous Compassion: Why Sometimes It Really Is… par Patrick West
Whilst citizens of developed countries are more affluent and comfortable, they are not more happy. Unhappiness has sought an outlet in recent years in bouts of public mourning and other forms of ostentatiously 'nice' politicing which do absolutely nothing to solve the problems (homelessness, poverty, aids etc.) that they purport to address. Indeed, they can exacerbate these problems. This is an absolutely spot-on, succinct and timely argument.
