- Information
Description
Since the 2007-8 financial crisis and its aftershocks, international capitalism has once again been in crisis.
The crisis has been particularly marked in the UK and its outcome is currently unclear.
Based upon a wealth of sources, from newspapers, journals, government, political party and polling organisation publications, as well as archival and secondary material, Neville Kirk examines the systemic crisis facing the nations of the UK.
The book traces the crisis from the period following the 2016 EU referendum up to 2022, a period during which the crisis intensified and became more widespread.
Kirk covers the elections of 2017 and 2019, political fragmentation, Scottish nationalism, Brexit, the coronavirus pandemic, continuing economic problems and conflicts around class, gender, race and nation.
Finally, the book considers competing pathways out of the current impasse.
Through his thorough examination of the UK’s main political parties and players, Kirk offers the reader a new and original understanding of how we reached the present situation.
