The EU is neither a supranational nanny state, nor an internationalist peace project. It is the means by which Europe's elites transformed their own states in order to rule the void where representative politics used to be. Leaving the EU is a necessary but not sufficient step towards closing the chasm between rulers and ruled.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book makes the democratic case for national sovereignty, arguing for a radical, forward-looking reconstitution of the British nation-state through strengthening representative democracy. It is essential for anyone who wonders why British politics is so dysfunctional and who wants to do better.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15713413\"\u003ePhilip Cunliffe\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15676284\"\u003eGeorge Hoare\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-14330839\"\u003eLee Jones\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Polity Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/26\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.50w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781509553204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1509553207\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POL\"\u003ePolitical Science\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POL058000\"\u003eWorld | European\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhilip Cunliffe\u003c\/b\u003e is Associate Professor in International Relations at University College London.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGeorge Hoare\u003c\/b\u003e is an independent researcher and co-host of the Bungacast podcast.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLee Jones\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Political Economy and International Relations at Queen Mary University of London.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeter Ramsa\u003c\/b\u003ey is Professor of Law at the London School of Economics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe authors write about politics at\u003ci\u003e thenorthernstar.online.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Polity Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44339497631981,"sku":"9781509553204","price":28.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_540a773e-9762-4f2e-ab3d-8b2445dfc543.jpg?v=1698254917","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/taking-control-sovereignty-and-democracy-after-brexit-9781509553204","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
