Minority Rule: Adventures in the Culture War
The instant top 5 Sunday Times bestseller from political commentator Ash Sarkar, now available in paperback with a brand new afterword
The explosive debut from political commentator Ash Sarkar, Minority Rule breaks down how the power of ordinary people is under attack by an elite minority and how we can focus our energy on the real problem at hand.
'One of the boldest and most exciting thinkers of her generation' NAOMI KLEIN
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.
'Delivers its message with punch and panache ... a joy to read' GUARDIAN
'If leftists feel they have been stumbling around in the darkness, Minority Rule flicks on the light' STANDARD

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.

At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
