This book is an attempt 'to think in a Gramscian way' about the
curious political phenomenon of New Labour. It is written partly in
retort to those people at the heart of the New Labour project who
have cited Gramsci as a source of inspiration for their ideas.
Pearmain argues that New Labour makes a far better object than
agent of Gramscian analysis.
The central thesis of Feelbad Britain is that after the decades of
neoliberalism the institutions and social relations on which
solidarity, trust and citizenship depend have been undermined. This
has left contemporary British society in a troubled and
dysfunctional state, without the cohesion or confidence needed if
we are to escape from recession, combat climate change and restore
faith in government. The authors put forward a theoretical
framework for understanding contemporary politics; and they
consider what is to be done to revitalise the British left,
challenge neoliberal hegemony, and develop a political project
aimed at creating a greener, fairer, happier, more democratic and
less divided Britain.
