Warring Fictions : Left Populism and its Defining Myths Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

At what level do we disagree? Since Jeremy Corbyn became Labour leader this has been a centralquestion for the two sides of the left.

There is constant discussion of 'splits', 'coups' and 'purges'. Anger and impotence are felt on both sides. Everyone seems to hate each other, but no one canagree on why. Writing from a centre-left perspective, Chris Clarke points to where the guts of the dispute lie.

Heargues that disagreements come down to narrative, not core values.

Belief or otherwise in thecentral myths which drive left populism - conflict, insurgency and decline - represents the truedividing line between pro- and anti-Corbyn factions. Combative but constructive, Warring Fictions makes the case for pluralism and questions thepremise of Corbynism.

Rather than a call for 'faux harmony', it's an attempt to break the deadlock- providing a route-map for the centre left, an explanation to the far left, and the foundations fora genuine debate between the two.
