Description
Brexit has brought to the surface fundamental questions about Britain's place in the world and its relationship with Europe. In this thought-provoking analysis, Richard Tuck argues that the liberal left's opposition to Brexit was misguided, as it tied itself into a framework designed to frustrate radical policies. Tuck contends that by opposing Brexit, the Left missed an opportunity to implement a socialist economic agenda, one that could have delivered popular revolution. Instead, many have succumbed to defeatism and virtue-signalling. This book offers a clear-sighted assessment of the underlying issues brought to the surface by Brexit, combining contemporary political insights with a profound grasp of modern history. For those seeking a nuanced understanding of this complex crisis, Tuck's work is essential reading.
