Minority Rule by Ash Sarkar
The explosive debut from political commentator Ash Sarkar, Minority Rule breaks down how the power of ordinary people is under attack by an elite minority and how we can focus our energy on the real problem at hand.
Ash Sarkar is one of the boldest and most exciting thinkers of her generation -- Naomi Klein, author of DOPPELGANGER and THE SHOCK DOCTRINE
A brilliantly bracing polemic -- Nigella Lawson
This book is a timely investigation of how our culture, in its broadest sense, supports ideas that favour the ruling class … Ash Sarkar’s book is essential reading – and time is short! -- Ken Loach
One of the most charismatic and compelling commentators in British politics for years now.. With the alt right seemingly winning the battle for hearts and minds around the west, Minority Rule is a necessary and welcome salvo from the other side * GQ, The most anticipated 2025 books *
In a book that will likely do what Owen Jones's Chavs: The Demonization of the Working Class and Reni Eddo-Lodge's Why I'm No Longer To White People About Race did to shift the political dial, Sarkar's debut looks at a world defined by inequality, insecurity, information overload and lack of community * Elle *
A thrilling polemic-meets-memoir, which identifies who really wins when the marginalised and the exploited turn on one another, and is not afraid to name names -- William Davies, author of THIS IS NOT NORMAL and THE LIMITS OF NEOLIBERALISM
Her analysis is painfully true – it’s brave and honest -- Ian Martin, writer for THE THICK OF IT
In her timely book, the political commentator Ash Sarkar addresses the fear that minorities are trying to overturn and oppress majority populations * New Statesman, 25 books to read in 2025 *
An examination of the way British Conservatives and American Republicans have stoked fears of a 'takeover by marginalised groups' * Guardian *
Look out for the story of ... the rise of the culture wars * Financial Times *
[An] urgent dissection of the deafening culture of distraction stoked by the ruling minority in the UK, and around the world * Irish Times, Nonfiction books to look out for in 2025 *
