In the first full length analysis of the rise of left-wing
hobbyists, performative radicals and the 'Identity Left', A Left
for Itself interrogates the connection between socio-economic
realities and politico-cultural views and boldly asks what is a
worthy politics, one for the follower count or one for effecting
change. 'In the sometimes febrile environment of contemporary left
politics, this book is a measured and evaluative contribution.
David Swift cuts through the rhetoric of often violent and divisive
exchanges to uncover the roots, motivations, diverse character and
strengths and weaknesses of the current phenomenon of so-called
`identity politics'.' Dr Stephen Meredith
