Minority rule (noun): an irrational fear fuelled by right-wing pundits, lobby journalists and billionaires, that minority groups are displacing majority populations.

We all know that the modern world is in crisis. But it’s not just a crisis for the climate, or of living standards – it’s a ‘blame crisis’. Whether it’s infighting on the left or the demonisation of immigrants on the right, there’s always a new talking point to distract us from real, systemic change.

Now is the time to realise that we have been duped into fighting with each other; now is the time to redirect our outrage towards those who deserve it.

In Minority Rule, political commentator Ash Sarkar offers a sharp and lively reality check. Whether it’s exposing the origins of the ‘white working class’, or examining how ‘non-events’ have taken over journalism, this book – now with a brand new afterword – will help you break the blame cycle for good.
