Beskrivning

This book provides the first nuanced and systematic study of Labour’s internal politics in the years in opposition, between 2010 and 2024, under the leaderships of Ed Miliband, Jeremy Corbyn and Keir Starmer. Written by two authors equipped with an intimate knowledge of the party, it offers an authoritative exploration of the politics of party management in one of the most strife-ridden and turbulent periods of the party’s history, the Corbyn leadership, and furnishes a timely analysis of the character, purposes and underpinnings of the Starmer managerial regime. In so doing, it shines new light on often ill-understood controversies over antisemitism, the Israel/Palestine issue, and Brexitwhile reflecting on the tension between centralisation and pluralism is a party which continues to define itself as a democratic, membership organisation.

Insightful on an important period of Labour’s transition from protest to power.The Rt Hon. Lord Peter HainA hugely important contribution to scholarship on the Labour Party. The book offers an engaging and intellectually rigorous account of internal party management from Ed Miliband to Keir Starmer. Order and Rebellion illuminates how leadership strategies, factionalism, and organisational control evolved amid turbulence and uncertainty and concludes with a sobering warning which Keir Starmer ought to listen: pursuing power for the sake of power risks endangering the future of the Labour Party.Eunice Goes, Professor of Politics, Richmond, the American University in LondonA comprehensive, well-informed, and original analysis of Labour politics in recent years. Emmanuelle Avril and Eric Shaw, two leading scholars of British politics, have come together to offer a meticulously researched, robustly argued, highly readable, and fascinating account. There is nothing like it in print: all those wishing to understand the febrile nature of British politics post-Brexit must read it. This volume is destined to become the standard work on the organisation of Labour politics.Mark Wickham-Jones, Professor of Political Science, University of Bristol
