** The instant top 5 Sunday Times bestseller from political commentator Ash Sarkar **

'One of the boldest and most exciting thinkers of her generation' NAOMI KLEIN
'Delivers its message with punch and panache ... A joy to read' GUARDIAN
'If leftists feel they have been stumbling around in the darkness, Minority Rule flicks on the light' STANDARD

We live under minority rule. But who is the ruling minority?

Most of us are getting screwed over. Our world is defined by inequality, insecurity, lack of community and information overload. As the world burns, mega-corporations are reporting record profits. How are they getting away with it?

‘Minority rule’ is the term Ash Sarkar uses to describe the irrational fear that minorities are trying to overturn and oppress majority populations. In her eye-opening debut, she reveals how minority elites rule majorities by creating the culture wars that have taken over our politics, stoking fear and panic in our media landscape. Because despite what they’ll have you believe, antiracist campaigners aren’t actually silencing the ‘forgotten’ working class, immigrants aren’t eating your pets, trans-activists aren’t corrupting your children, and cancel culture isn’t crushing free speech.

In Minority Rule, Sarkar exposes how a strategic misdirection of blame over who is really screwing everything up is keeping the majority divided, while the real ruling minority of hedge fund managers, press barons, landlords and corporations remain on top. And it’s facilitating one of the biggest power grabs in history. Most crucially, she shows us how what we really have in common is being concealed by a deafening culture of distraction – and that the first step towards a better future is understanding what is happening now, and how we got here.

An 2025 highlight for GQ, New Statesman and Irish Times

批評家のレビュー

Original, vivid, reflective ... Feels like it's written by a really sage old philosopher, sequestered away in the corner of the university but is somehow across pop culture to be able to make references that you find funny and have touchstones with ... A marvellous piece of writing (Oli Dugmore, PoliticsJOE)
I love a book which confounds your expectations. And Minority Rule is definitely that. It's the sort of book actually you wish you'd written. I really recommend it. Ash is a truly original thinker: unafraid to have something uncomfortable to say to her own side, which to me, is one of the marks of any political book which is worth reading (Lewis Goodall, The News Agents podcast)
Her analysis is painfully true – it’s brave and honest and the Left needs to hear this, especially from one of their own (Ian Martin, writer for THE THICK OF IT)
A brilliantly bracing polemic (Nigella Lawson)
This book is a timely investigation of how our culture, in its broadest sense, supports ideas that favour the ruling class … Ash Sarkar’s book is essential reading – and time is short! (Ken Loach)
A thrilling polemic-meets-memoir, which identifies who really wins when the marginalised and the exploited turn on one another, and is not afraid to name names (William Davies, author of THIS IS NOT NORMAL and THE LIMITS OF NEOLIBERALISM)
