The survival of Western civilization depends on a return to traditional values from "summary" of The Death of the West by Patrick J. Buchanan

The West is facing a crisis of identity and values. The foundations of Western civilization are being eroded by the forces of globalization, multiculturalism, and secularism. Traditional values that have sustained Western societies for centuries are now under attack. The erosion of traditional values has led to a breakdown in social cohesion and a loss of cultural confidence. Western societies are becoming increasingly fragmented and divided, with individuals and groups retreating into their own enclaves and identities. This fragmentation weakens the bonds that hold societies together, leading to social disintegration and conflict. The decline of traditional values has also undermined the institutions that have been the bedrock of Western civilization. The family, the church, and other social institutions that have traditionally provided a moral compass and a sense of community are now in decline. As these institutions weaken, so too does the fabric of society. To reverse this trend and ensure the survival of Western civilization, we must return to traditional values. Traditional values provide a moral framework that can guide individuals and societies through the challenges of the modern world. They offer a sense of purpose and meaning that is essential for a healthy and vibrant society. By embracing traditional values, we can rebuild the social cohesion and cultural confidence that are necessary for the survival of Western civilization. We can strengthen the institutions that have sustained us for centuries and ensure that they continue to serve as the foundation of our societies. It is only by returning to traditional values that we can overcome the crisis facing Western civilization and secure a future for ourselves and our children. The stakes could not be higher, and the time to act is now.
