More about the book

The book explores a significant shift in popular culture, highlighting a transition from celebrating historical heroes to focusing on victims of violence. It examines how public spaces, such as airports, now honor those who suffered rather than military victories. Additionally, it discusses the change in war reporting, which now prioritizes the narratives of casualties, refugees, and destruction over the valor of military leaders and troops. This transformation reflects a broader societal change in values and perspectives on history and conflict.
