Civilizational thinking’s main domestic target was US demographic change

Evidence

Although Fukuyama’s and Huntington’s theses have been discussed primarily in the light of their foreign-policy implications, a major target of this rise in civilizational thinking, as I have argued elsewhere in detail, was demographic changes within the United States. Soon after the Immigration and Nationality Act Amendment of 1965 (the Hart-Cellar Act) abolished national origin quotas, a noticeable rise in immigration resulted in major demographic changes. — Hamid Dabashi, Brown Skin, White Masks, 78
