After several printed publications, and in line with our focus on European history and civilization, we are proud to release our first human-voiced audiobook: The Brussels Speech: What Is the Great Replacement? by Renaud Camus. Narrated by Legatum Publishing and produced by Vox Machina, a Legatum Publishing project, this audiobook brings a critical work of contemporary thought to a new audience.
In this compelling audiobook, renowned French thinker Renaud Camus explains the origins of the term The Great Replacement and emphasizes that it is not a theory, as detractors have labeled it, but an observation of reality. “The Great Replacement is, par excellence, a dispossession for dispossessed peoples”. The author emphasizes that this phenomenon is not just a passing trend but “first of all a chrononym, a name for an era after its by far most important phenomenon: the change of people and civilisation, in one or two generations. There was a people there, for centuries or millennia; there are now one or more others.”
Camus also introduces his actual theory, specifically that of global replacism, which critiques the homogenization of societies through globalization. This diabolical enterprise eradicates distinct cultural, racial, and national identities in favor of what he calls UHM—Undifferentiated Human Matter. Camus argues that this leads to the erasure of not only foreigners but, even “foreignness”, resulting in a world where differences are eliminated and everyone is “everywhere at home”.
