What's Left: Radical Politics and the Radical Psyche
What's Left: Radical Politics and the Radical Psyche
Editorial Reviews
William Leiss, author of 'The Domination of Nature'
"This is an insider's view, and it is a devastating indictment of radical pseudo politics..."
Book Description
'What's Left?' is at once a mocking critique of Western radicalism and an attempt to redeem the left from the embarrassment it has brought on itself. The author shows how the confusion among political activists of political success with personal growth produces a convoluted egotism: "The sin of the left was not the impurity of its altruism but the dishonesty of its selfishness". Yet Neumann also argues that left-wing politics is essential to social progress: "Radicalism has been absurdly misused, but to reject it on those grounds is like rejecting cars because of the way twelve year olds drive them."
