But while every society has a distinctive culture, authentic civilisations must offer those they subjugate an attractive way of life. Their imprint outlasts their imperium.</p><p>A century ago, Debray argues, there was a European civilisation of which America was an outlying culture; but today the relationship is reversed. In 1900, an American of taste was a European in exile; in 2000, a trendy European is a frustrated American - or one waiting for a visa. Characteristic of American civilization is its three overarching fetishes: <em>space</em>, <em>image</em> and <em>happiness</em>. America is a civilization of space and image, whereas Europe was one of time and writing. And its kitsch infantilism blinds itself to the tragic complexities of human life. A measure of Americas success is how its globish jargon has so successfully infiltrated European languages.</p><p>For Debray, the dominance of American civilisation is a historical fait accompli, yet he sees a model for Europe in Vienna after its exclusion from the German Reich. For decades to come, Europe can still offer a rich cultural seedbed. Some will call it decadence, others liberation.
