Description
Taking Control argues that neither side in the Brexit debate really understood the European Union or what was involved in reclaiming Britain s sovereignty. The EU is neither a supranational nanny state, nor an internationalist peace project. It is the means by which Europe s elites transformed their own states in order to rule the void where representative politics used to be. Leaving the EU is a necessary but not sufficient step towards closing the chasm between rulers and ruled.
This book makes the democratic case for national sovereignty, arguing for a radical, forward-looking reconstitution of the British nation-state through strengthening representative democracy. It is essential for anyone who wonders why British politics is so dysfunctional and who wants to do better.
