“In many countries, new insurgent political movements have upended the status quo that sustained the mainstream political parties, showing them up as out of date and obsolete. This book is a manual for success in the current political and media environment. Learning from these successes, this book provides a road map for how potential new parties or old parties that wish to reinvent themselves can succeed in the new political landscape. “This book takes us through a deep analysis of what has driven the success of insurgent new parties in Europe and Canada. One of the book’s most interesting questions is: could it happen in the UK? The UK’s electoral system is a cruel master, but we may well find the UK’s political system is rather less resistant to the shock of the new than many of us imagine.”
