On Niall Ferguson’s Conception of the West’s Challenger“What we are living through now is the end of 500 years of Western predominance. This time the Eastern challenger is for real, both economically and geopolitically. It is too early for the Chinese to proclaim “We are the masters now.” But they are clearly no longer the apprentices.” ~ Niall Ferguson in his book *Civilization: The West and the Rest* (2011) The field of history is dominated by leftist scholars but Ferguson is an arch-conservative.
