Comment la gauche a contribué à créer un Monster politique

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

In a world polarised by ideology and defined by political extremes, the radical right has emerged as a force too potent to ignore. But where did it come from—and how did we let it grow?

In this provocative and unflinching critique, The Rise of the Radical Right exposes how the radical left’s obsession with identity politics, cancel culture, and the relentless demonisation of opponents has fuelled the very fires they sought to extinguish. By pushing boundaries too far and alienating broad swathes of society, the left’s excesses have created fertile ground for the rise of an even more dangerous adversary.

Drawing on historical parallels, modern political shifts, and incisive analysis, Daniel Brynmor explores the fragile state of today’s ideological battles. It challenges dogmatic thinking on both sides, demonstrating how the tools of division have perpetuated a cycle of outrage and extremism.

With critical reflections on modern political philosophy, the book delves into pressing issues, such as the rise of fascism, the threat of authoritarianism, and the perilous allure of demagogues. It doesn’t shy away from uncomfortable truths, including a critique of uninformed voters and the dangers posed by tribalism and cults of personality.

Bold and unapologetic, The Rise of the Radical Right blends historical context, contemporary affairs, and a clear-eyed critique of political extremes. It’s a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the chaotic political landscape of the 21st century.
