Avi Davis, senior fellow of the American Freedom Alliance, explained that the conference was organized because there is "an alarming sense that the steady erosion of democratic values in Europe will eventuate in a defeat for democracy in many other part of the world. European democratic values have been severely tested in recent years as growing internal Muslim restiveness and intimidation have imposed a virtual code of silence on the continent's politicians and media who fail to address Muslim conduct and theology particularly when they contradict Europe's democratic traditions. The French riots of 2005 and the Danish Cartoon Riots of 2006 made explicit the very real threat Europeans face from radical extremists who may be using the democratic process to destroy democracy itself."

 

The conference will address the topic from a number of angles – sociological, cultural, political and economic - in an attempt to determine whether there is a collapse and if so, the extent of the demise. The keynote addresses will be followed panel sessions which will in turn be followed by breakout sessions.

 

Among the European panelists are: Henryk Broder – journalist and best selling author of Hurray- We Surrender!; Claire Berlinksi - an American journalist living in Europe and author of Menace in Europe; Leon de Winter – a well known Dutch journalist and author and Afshin Ellian- an Iranian dissident and Dutch professor of law.
