'The clash of civilizations' and 'New World Order' predict an ideological shift in the Post-cold war period from :

  • A.Political ideology to economic liberalism
  • B.Geopolitics to geo-economics
  • C.Nation-state to the civilization area
  • D.Political ideology to culture and religion

Answer: D

The predicted shift is from political ideology to culture and religion.

Samuel Huntington argued in 'The Clash of Civilizations' (1993) that after the Cold War the great divisions among humankind would be cultural rather than ideological or economic, with conflicts along the fault lines between civilizations defined largely by religion.

A move from political ideology to economic liberalism is Francis Fukuyama's 'end of history'. 'Geopolitics to geo-economics' is Edward Luttwak's thesis. Huntington still treated nation-states as the main actors, with civilizations shaping their alignments, so the shift is not from the nation-state to the civilization.
