This book laments the pre-war state of the world and the broken promises of industrialism and democracy. The author believes that these ideologies have replaced spiritual exaltation with materialism, leaving society on the brink of collapse. While some see hope in a return to the pre-war status quo or a descent into Bolshevism, the author proposes an alternative: the creation of self-sustaining communities, or "Walled Towns." These towns would reject the excesses of modern life, emphasizing justice, charity, and the production of only what is truly needed. Rooted in the traditions of monasticism, the author envisions these communities as places where people can live more wholesomely, free from the destructive forces of modern civilization. Ultimately, this book challenges our assumptions about what constitutes a good society and offers a thought-provoking path forward in a world facing profound uncertainty.
