This book analyses Brexit in the larger context of the crisis in
liberal democracies and the continuing rise of 'nationalism'. With
electoral verdicts favouring right-wing populists across the world,
the volume argues that Brexit has become a key event in
understanding global political currents, as well as emerging as a
watershed moment in the current political climate. The author
focuses on the underlying currents that shaped the Brexit vote and
delineates the various strands of arguments that inform the current
political climate. The volume also locates the deepening divide
within the discourse and understanding of democracy, as well the
abysmally low level of rhetoric informing the debates around it.
Further, it links this up with other 'nationalist' waves across the
world, including South Asia. A nuanced reading of a key event, this
book will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of
politics, especially political theory, political sociology and
history.
