Arguing that political correctness cripples public debate, limits growth of knowledge and threatens democracy, this book will serve to make the reader aware of these threats. In addition, it shows that meritocracies have become contaminated by the radioactive dust from the propaganda of cultural wars. Why are media professionals and fellow teachers still following the instructions issued by the masters of the Cold War universe in order to control damage?

Sławomir Magala taught cross-cultural management from 1985 to 2015 at the Erasmus University in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Magala wrote “Class Struggle in Classless Poland” (under the penname of Stanislaw Starski), when the Polish “Solidarność” started closing the communist experiment down in 1980 and published it in Boston’s South End Press in 1982. He is the author of Cross-Cultural Competence (2005) and The Management of Meaning in Organizations (2009).
