At present, the West is unwillingly brought face to face with loyal allies like Turkey because of the obligation to keep new cultures and states on its side. Moreover, there is public opinion in each Western country which supports this demand for identity by the emerging countries. So it must now at least verbally support new demands for democracy. The third point is that Western capitalism has not noticed that it was the one that created communism. The West simply did not want to acknowledge that the capitalist mode of production could not allow for social justice, which communism had to fight for.
Communism is now dead but poverty and wealth still exist on an international level.
Communism no longer fills the need for an antithesis. And this is where Islam comes in, emerging as a political opposition to the West in place of communism and socialism. Moreover, it has no opponent. So now there is no socialism, no communism, nor any ideology embracing social democracy. Islam can clear the board.
