Forum Occidentalis – Institute for Western Civilization

Introducing Forum Occidentalis

Europe is undergoing a profound political and civilizational transition. While many voters in Western democracies increasingly question prevailing policies on migration, sovereignty, cultural identity, technology, and free speech, the German-speaking academic landscape lacks an institution that studies these issues from a conservative or identitarian perspective. Forum Occidentalis aims to fill this gap by establishing a professional think tank focused on research into civilization, sovereignty, and democratic self-government within the Western intellectual tradition.
