*** A Financial Times best political book of the year***

'The transformation of the US into an autocracy has advanced... It might be irreversible [ and] will change almost everything in the world. Nobody has outlined this danger more compellingly than Robert Kagan' - Martin Wolf, Financial Times

A chilling and clear-eyed warning about the threats to our democracy posed by the increasing radicalization of the Republican Party, from a leading historian and intellectual.

The 2024 election could be the last free election held in a unified America. So warns Robert Kagan in this brilliant and terrifying analysis of the perilous state of democracy in the United States today. If Donald Trump loses the upcoming election, as he did in 2020, but refuses to accept the result, as he also did in the last election, he is likely to call on his millions of followers to repudiate the election results. It will be a short step from there to Republican-dominated states rejecting the legitimacy of the federal government and effectively seceding. The United States at that point will cease to be united, with grave consequences for both Americans and the world.

In Rebellion, Kagan dives deeper than the op-eds and think pieces to explore the historical forces that have brought us to this momentin particular the long history of opposition to liberalism, and to government, that has shaped Americas character from the time of the Revolution to today. Trumps unique capacity to tap into that tradition of dissent and circumvent the American system has brought us to the edge of dissolutionnot for the first time in our history but possibly the last. This is an elegant and deeply informed synthesis of history, contemporary politics, and ideas that sheds light on this crucial moment.

A detailed account of the rights drift towards authoritarianism... traces the historical roots of Donald Trumps appeal to a long tradition of anti-liberal thought in the US -- Gideon Rachman and Frederick Studemann * Financial Times * A powerful, much-needed political and social analysis that all lovers of democracy should read * Kirkus (starred review) * Kagan details, mordantly, the anti-liberalism that emerged during and after the Civil War, a strain that, just as much as todays version, insisted on a Christian commonwealth founded essentially on wounded white working-class pride -- Adam Gopnik * The New Yorker * A concise but thorough tour through the influence of American liberalisms malign twin . . . Kagan manages to diagnose both the acute and chronic nature of our present crisis -- Alan Elrod * Liberal Currents *
