Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Named a Best Book of 2023 by Financial Times and Kirkus ReviewsThe #1 Sunday Times bestseller, published in the UK as Politics on the Edge.One of the best books on politics our era will see . . . A book of astonishing literary quality. Matthew Parris, The TLS[Rory Stewart] walked across Asia, served in British Parliament, and ran against Boris Johnson. Now he gives us his view of whats wrong with politics, and how we can make it right. Adam Grant, The 12 New Fall Books to Enrich Your ThinkingFrom a great writerlegendary for his expeditions into some of the worlds most forbidding placesa wise, honest, and sometimes absurdist memoir of a most remarkable journey through British politics at the breaking pointRory Stewart was an unlikely politician. He was best known for his two-year walk across Asiain which he crossed Afghanistan, essentially solo, in the months after 9/11and for his service, as a diplomat in Iraq, and Afghanistan. But in 2009, he abandoned his chair at Harvard University to stand for a seat in Parliament, representing the communities and farms of the Lake District and the Scottish borderone of the most isolated and beautiful districts in England. He ran as a Conservative, though he had no prior connection to the politics and there was much about the party that he disagreed with.How Not to Be a Politician is a candid and penetrating examination of life on the ground as a politician in an age of shallow populism, when every hard problem has a solution thats simple, appealing, and wrong. While undauntedly optimistic about what a public servant can accomplish in the lives of his constituents, the book is also a pitiless insiders expose of the game of politics at the highest level, often shocking in its displays of rampant cynicism, ignorance, glibness, and sheer incompetence. Stewart witnesses Britains vote to leave the European Union and its descent into political civil war, compounded by the bad faith of his partys leadersDavid Cameron, Boris Johnson, and Liz Truss.Finally, after nine years of service and six ministerial roles, and shocked by his partys lurch to the populist right, Stewart ran for prime minister. Stewarts campaign took him into the lead in the opinion polls, head-to-head against Boris Johnson. How Not to Be a Politician is his effort to make sense of it all, including what has happened to politics in Britain and the world and how we can fix it. The view into democracys dark heart is troubling, but at every turn Stewart also finds allies and ways to make a difference. A bracing, invigorating mix of irony and love infuses How Not to Be a Politician. This is one of the most revealing memoirs written by a politician in living memory. From a great writer-legendary for his expeditions into some of the world's most forbidding places comes a sometimes-absurdist memoir of a most remarkable journey through British politics at the breaking point.
