He made these remarks during the launch of the new US national security strategy and reiterated the American administration's full support for European far-right parties. Beyond destabilization, the destruction of the European Union is a political objective shared by both Trump and Putin.</p>]]></description>

Do they mean the same thing? Obviously, they are related terms, but this does not mean that they are strictly interchangeable. This juxtaposition may seem unimportant, but in fact, it ends up leading to confusing analyses. Although, in my humble opinion, the concept of "culture war" is already foreshadowed between the lines in the first volume of <em>The Decline of the West</em> (1918) by Oswald Spengler, the expression "<em>culture wars</em>"It was popularized by sociologist James Davison Hunter in 1991. It's worth paying attention to the date: in the early 1990s, once real socialism had been shamefully dismantled, it was very difficult to talk about ideological confrontations: defending the virtues of Ceausescu or Enver Hoxha was very complicated. It implied it. In the United States, Republican and Democratic intellectuals began to fight over other things. As time went on, Steve Bannon, advisor to Donald Trump, said that what was at stake was not capitalism or the like, but "the soul of America," that is, its values in theme, national identity, the practice of religion or gender. The traditional ideological wars of the 20th century, on the other hand, were focused above all on the notion of political system and the economy. <em>casus belli</em> during the Cold War, and this is just one example among many others.</p>]]></description>
