It is not the \"wokerati,\" but their likely victims who are waking up. What they see is how a large number of social trends that may have posed little danger separately--mass migration made more divisive by multiculturalism; the rise of identity politics; the imposition of bureaucratic \"diversity;\" the collapse of Christianity and traditional religious restraints; the sexual revolution; the weakening of the family; radical gender theory and the rising hostility between the sexes; terrorism and its gradual accommodation by democratic governments and institutions; the smothering of national sovereignty by \"global governance;\" the rise of anti-national elites in Western societies; the post-communist crises of conservatism; the extraordinary recent resurrection of \"socialism\" as a social panacea among the young; the economic consequences of environmentalism--all have coalesced into a brewing social revolution that leaves most ordinary people feeling dispossessed in their countries and losing the future. In this series of essays written over the course of a storied career, John O'Sullivan, a former adviser to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and editor of National Review shows how this revolution has emerged and how this revolution can be resisted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46443617714327,"sku":"9781680533293","price":5064.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781680533293.webp?v=1769127498","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/sleepwalking-into-wokeness-how-we-got-here-9781680533293","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
