An Evening Standard's Book of the Year 'A tour de force.' David
Goodhart All over the West, party systems have shattered and
governments have been thrown into turmoil. The embattled
establishment claims that these populist insurgencies seek to
overthrow liberal democracy. The truth is no less alarming but is
more complex: Western democracies are being torn apart by a new
class war. In this controversial and groundbreaking analysis,
Michael Lind, one of America's leading thinkers, debunks the idea
that the insurgencies are primarily the result of bigotry and
reveals the real battle lines. He traces how the breakdown of class
compromises has left large populations in Western democracies
politically adrift. We live in a globalized world that benefits
elites in high income 'hubs' while suppressing the economic and
social interests of those in more traditional lower-wage
'heartlands'. A bold framework for understanding the world, The New
Class War argues that only a fresh class settlement can avert a
never-ending cycle of clashes between oligarchs and populists - and
save democracy.
