The Establishment: And How They Get Away With It
Book • 2014
In this book, Owen Jones delves into the heart of the British Establishment, examining the interlocking interests of various power structures including the Westminster cartel, the media, the police, state-dependent corporations, the financial sector, and tax evaders.
Jones argues that this Establishment sustains a highly unsatisfactory status quo, perpetuating neoliberal capitalism and undermining the notion of popular sovereignty.
The book is a substantial addition to recent left-wing political writing and serves as a manifesto for a new socialist Britain.
