Observer 'Inside the anti-political revolt that gave us Brexit and
Trump' Evening Standard 'Fascinating... Excellent' Literary Review
'Must read ... A radical odyssey' Daily Mail In the last few years
the world has changed in unexpected ways. The power of radical
ideas and groups is growing. What was once considered extreme is
now the mainstream. But what is life like on the political fringes?
What is the real power of radicals? Radicals is an exploration of
the individuals, groups and movements who are rejecting the way we
live now, and attempting to find alternatives. In it, Jamie
Bartlett, one of the world's leading thinkers on radical politics
and technology, takes us inside the strange and exciting worlds of
the innovators, disruptors, idealists and extremists who think
society is broken, and believe they know how to fix it. From dawn
raids into open mines to the darkest recesses of the internet,
Radicals introduces us to some of the most secretive and
influential movements today: techno-futurists questing for
immortality, far-right groups seeking to close borders, militant
environmentalists striving to save the planet's natural reserves by
any means possible, libertarian movements founding new countries,
autonomous cooperatives in self-sustaining micro-societies, and
psychedelic pioneers attempting to heal society with the help of
powerful hallucinogens. As well as providing a fascinating glimpse
at the people and ideas driving these groups, Radicals also
presents a startling argument: radicals are not only the symptoms
of a deep unrest within the world today, but might also offer the
most plausible models for our future.
