What is going wrong with our politics, and why is it happening? In this groundbreaking book, Nick Timothy, one of Britain's leading conservative thinkers and commentators, explores the issues behind the public's anger with mainstream politics. Drawing on his experience at the top of government, Timothy traces the crisis of western democracy back to flaws in philosophical liberalism. Sparing no sacred cows, he proposes a new kind of conservatism, respecting personal freedom but demanding solidarity, reforming capitalism and rebuilding community, rejecting selfish individualism while embracing our obligations towards others. Only by building a mutual web of duties and a unifying sense of the common good that binds us together can we reject both extreme economic and cultural liberalism, heal our divisions, and remake one nation.
