Summary/Abstract: The author's aim of the analysis presented in the article is an attempt of answering the question: are we able to protect and save Latin civilization? His considerations are based mainly on theories of Feliks Koneczny and Henri Massis but also other philosophers, who agree that we should protect Christian values, are mentioned. The author notices that Islamic State is a real danger to biological and cultural existence of western Europe. He also points that we should protect our own civilization from the external threat – especially evoking last occurrences in Paris or Middle East, because they clearly show that strives between civilizations might affect the armed conflicts. The article reveals that protecting Latin civilization is a real challenge for contemporary western society as it is facing permanent attacks from extraneous civilizations.The author points that as a consequence we might suffer from debasement of morals and losing our own unique identity.
