Today, Trump’s USA is a government of the billionaires, by the billionaires, for the billionaires. As inequalities grow starker and authoritarianism takes hold, people are deprived of both the basic necessities of life and the right to hold to account the ever-smaller number of corporations in whose hands wealth and power are vested. What’s more, throughout the world, wherever you look it’s the same: from Britain to Brunei, the rich have never had it so good.

So, amid the wreckage of this broken system, where do we go from here? In this powerful, urgent book, Bernie Sanders shows us how. If we are to restore our democracies and build back societies for the good of all, he argues, we must start by questioning the fundamental moral values that underlie the dominant behaviour in our society today, by asking ourselves what wealth really means, and what we are really striving for: for our communities, for our children, for the future of our planet.

Democracy, Sanders emphasizes, is not a spectator sport. If we are to bring about political revolution, we must all join the fight, in whatever way we can. As history shows us, when the ruling class divides us, we lose; when we stand together, we win. Let’s do it.
