The age of menace : capitalism, inequality and the battle for dignity

"Billionaires, Boris Johnson, big tech monopolies, raging inequality, Russian oligarchs, cancel culture, superyachts, spaceships to Mars, Twitter wars, a potentially devastating global inflation crisis… These may seem like entirely disparate issues, but they are all connected. Not for many generations has the world been brimming with this level of uncertainty, whether it’s a virus scouring the planet, the threat of nuclear war in Europe or the unravelling of political lies in yet another government scandal. ‘The Age of Menace’ pulls these apparently disconnected strands together, illuminating the driving forces that have led us to this unique and chaotic point in human history."--Publisher's description
