How the Establishment Lost Control by Chris Nineham

How the Establishment Lost Control by Chris Nineham

The post-war consensus is breaking up. The 2014 Scottish referendum, the election of Jeremy Corbyn as Labour leader and the turmoil of the EU referendum all testify to an insurgent mood amongst swathes of the population. This book will attempt to explain these dramatic developments and to show how they question received notions about politics, history and how change happens. Above all they challenge widespread assumptions about the resilience of elite hegemony, the influence of conventional structures of thought and the ability of the mass of the population to think autonomously in a `post-ideological age'.

An antidote to the neoliberal fixation of British mainstream discourseA must read for the informed citizen.--Francesca Martinez A must read for anyone concerned with the state of our times, its historical antecedents and the possibilities of a different world.--Alpa Shah, author of In the Shadows of the State
