In The West, Georgios Varouxakis explores the origins and evolving meaning of the term "the West," revealing it was not rooted in ancient philosophy or imperial conquest but emerged in the 1820s and gained prominence in the 1840s through philosopher Auguste Comte. The book traces how the concept has transformed over time, influenced by various social and political shifts, and examines its multiple, often surprising, interpretations from its inception to the present day.
