Divided: Why We're Living in an Age of Walls
Divided: Why We're Living in an Age of Walls

Exploring contemporary global divisions and barriers.

If you're keen on understanding the current geopolitical climate, "Divided" by Tim Marshall is a compelling choice. Marshall, known for his ability to distill complex international matters into digestible insights, delves into the reasons behind the increasing division in our world through walls, both literal and metaphorical. It's eye-opening and thought-provoking, perfect for those looking to grasp the nuances of why and how our societies are segmenting.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

We feel more divided than ever. This riveting analysis tells you why. Walls are going up. Nationalism and identity politics are on the rise once more. Thousands of miles of fences and barriers have been erected in the past ten years, and they are redefining our political landscape. There are many reasons why we erect walls, because we are divided in many ways: wealth, race, religion, politics. In Europe, the ruptures of the past decade threaten not only European unity, but in some countries liberal democracy itself. In China, the Party’s need to contain the divisions wrought by capitalism will define the nation’s future. In the USA, the rationale for the Mexican border wall taps into the fear that the USA will no longer be a white majority country in the course of this century. Understanding what has divided us, past and present, is essential to understanding much of what’s going on in the world today. Bestselling author Tim Marshall presents a gripping and unflinching analysis of the fault lines that will shape our world for years to come.
