CULTURE & POLITICS (ZER0 BOOKS) Aliens, Robots & Virtual Reality Idols in the Science Fiction of H. P. Lovecraft, Isaac Asimov and William Gibson John L. Steadman H. P. Lovecraft’s aliens are extra-terrestrial, terrestrial & trans-dimensional entities. In contrast, Isaac Asimov's and William Gibson’s aliens are human-created positronic robots and virtual reality constructs, or 'idols'. John L. Steadman demonstrates that there is ultimately little difference between alien indifferentism and alien inclusionism in the fictional works of these three great writers. " ... guarantees that you will never look at the writing of Lovecraft, Asimov or Gibson in the same way again." Dr David Simmons, Senior Lecturer in English and Screen Studies, University of Northampton Zero Books; 2020-10-30; Science Fiction & Fantasy/American (General)/Robotics; Pb-9781789045109, $25.95/£16.99, 272pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789045116, $20.99/£13.99. Brexit: The Establishment Civil War Josh Hamilton Wrapped up in a story of the British public's rejection of the establishment is a much darker story about shady money, untoward digital campaign tactics, and a fraught battle exploding from the highest rungs of British politics and society. Brexit: The Establishment Civil War is a crucial examination of what is now driving British politics, the forces attempting to manipulate it, and the online warfare techniques that are being deployed in modern politics.

Albion's Secret History Guy Mankowski Albion's Secret History compiles snapshots of English pop culture’s rebels and outsiders, from Evelyn Waugh to PJ Harvey via The Long Blondes and The Libertines.

CULTURE & POLITICS (ZER0 BOOKS) Cauldron of Anxiety, A William Briggs Capitalism has passed its use-by-date, but a better, saner world is possible. "A Cauldron of Anxiety is a book for anyone left feeling wretched by the state of our world: the poverty, the degradation of our environment, the brutality of our rulers. Briggs blames all our ills singly and compellingly on the capitalist system, insisting that it is the monster against which all of us should unite. He helps us to see a world beyond the misery of our present." David Renton, author of The New Authoritarians: Convergence on the Right Zero Books; 2021-03-26; Communism, Post-Communism & Socialism/Social Psychology/Political; Pb-9781789046090, $19.95/£12.99, 192pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789046106, $15.99/£10.99. Conscience of a Progressive, The Steven Klees Prof. Klees draws on 45 years of work around the world as an economist and international educator to paint a detailed picture of conservative, liberal, and progressive views on a wide range of current social issues. He takes an in-depth look at his specializations: education, economics, poverty and inequality, international development, and capitalism. He examines major social problems like health care, the climate crisis, and war. Throughout the book, Prof. Klees tries to give a fair and careful depiction of how conservatives and liberals see these issues, whilst focusing on critiques by progressives, and on the alternatives they offer.

Democracy Under Siege Frank Furedi Frank Furedi examines the frequent claim that democracy is a means to an end rather than an important value in and of itself. The prevalence of this sentiment in the current era is not surprising, given that the normative foundation for democracy is fragile, and there is little cultural valuation for this outlook. Democracy Under Siege outlines the long history of anti-democratic thought, explains why hostility to democracy has gained momentum in the current era, and offers a positive affirmation of the principle and the value of democracy. Zero Books; 2020-10-30; History & Theory/Democracy/Comparative Politics; Pb-9781789046281, $19.95/£12.99, 168pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789046298, $15.99/£10.99. End of the Megamachine, The Fabian Scheidler Provides a uniquely comprehensive picture of the roots of the destructive forces that are threatening the future of humankind. Spanning 5000 years of history, the book shows how the three tyrannies of militarized states, capital accumulation and ideological power have been steering both ecosystems and societies to the brink of collapse. With the growing instability of the Megamachine in the 21st century, new dangers open up as well as new possibilities for systemic change, to which everyone can contribute. “The topic could not be more important. A very valuable and surely timely contribution.” Noam Chomsky Zero Books; 2020-09-25; Civilization/History & Theory/Cultural & Social; Pb-9781789042719, $29.95/£19.99, 448pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789042726, $23.99/£15.99. 4 www.johnhuntpublishing.com

Through interviews, creative non-fiction, and cultural theory, Hatty Nestor deconstructs a range of different prison portraiture.

The Parallel Political Lives of Donald Trump and Silvio Berlusconi Edoardo M Fracanzani A look at the striking similarities between Donald Trump and Silvio Berlusconi, from their business and TV backgrounds to the unprecedented way in which they broke into politics. Both leaders introduced new language patterns, deepened the political wedge between parties, and managed to recruit a significant base of followers; should they be considered a cult, rather than political affiliation? In Norms Under Siege, Edoardo M. Fracanzani goes beyond comparisons between Trump and Berlusconi and asks what is revealed about the kind of society that would allow their rise to power. Zero Books; 2021-06-25; European/Comparative Politics/American Government (General); Pb-9781789044669, $21.95/£14.99, 264pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789044676, $15.99/£11.99. Farewell to Democracy? Jack Luzkow Farewell to Democracy? is a manifesto that beckons us forward. It reminds us how we stumbled and tells us how to get back on our feet. If you think you are living in an era of post-truth, you likely are. Farewell to Democracy? insists that nothing is inevitable. That we are not powerless. That we have institutions to help protect us, which we must protect in turn. It shows us what happens when we speak truth to power. It details the strength of mass protest. It pulls back the veil on Post-Truth. It urges all of us to bear witness and to "show up."

He Was Our Man in Washington Owen Symes He Was Our Man in Washington provides a detailed narrative of the years of the Obama administration. "Here is a comprehensively researched, well-argued, and balanced evaluation of Obama’s presidency.

CULTURE & POLITICS (ZER0 BOOKS) In Praise of Friendship Michał Herer If we are to resist returning to the logic of clashing, violent particularisms and defend ourselves against fascist or fascistoid tendencies that appear on the political horizon, we need a renaissance of the culture of friendship. "In the last two centuries or so we’ve been telling each other why are we divided. Mr Herer demonstrates in a novel way that the foundations of togetherness are not lacking, even if they don’t coincide with the foundations of our societies. This is both alarming and reassuring." G. M. Tamás, Visiting Professor at the Central European University in Budapest and Vienna Zero Books; 2021-02-26; Criticism/Social/Cultural & Social; Pb-9781789043891, $14.95/£9.99, 112pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789043907, $11.99/£7.99. Transcending Racial Divisions Christine Louis-Dit-Sully Today, with the increasing demand to recognize the seemingly insurmountable gap between black people and white people, identity-based anti-racism has become more of a hindrance than a solution for a better and freer world for us all. Christine Louis-Dit-Sully examines the origins of racial thinking and the relationship between race and culture, she asks us to recognise that racial thinking is not the only way of understanding ourselves and the world around us. Zero Books; 2021-05-28; Commentary & Opinion/Social History/Black Studies (Global); Pb-9781789041316, $21.95/£14.99, 216pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789041323, $17.99/£11.99. Stay Alive Michael Harris When The Hunger Games series began in 2008, many commentators lumped it in with other young adult genre fiction. But The Hunger Games was always more political. It’s since become the defining story for a generation that’s grown up with economic crisis and never ending war. Stay Alive uses the story to shed light on our own age of extreme inequalities and climate collapse, in which elites use state power, compliant media, and violent spectacle to pacify their populations. Stay Alive reveals the hidden revolution at the heart of The Hunger Games and what it means for our age of defiant youth-led revolt.

TWICE: A Novel Susanna Kleeman Nim's ex-love returns from Silicon Valley, wanting a book from their childhood. She chucks him out. Moments later, he's back again, one fingertip missing, claiming he's the real Chris and that Nim's first visitor was an imposter. Nim doesn't believe him, so he abducts her, forcing her on a journey where nothing is as it seems. "Wryly hilarious and utterly bonkers, TWICE is like nothing I've encountered. Imagine David Cronenberg making a horror film after binge-watching Fleabag, and you'll have a general idea of the kind of roller-coaster ride that awaits in Kleeman's delightful horror." Dan Chaon | author of ILL WILL Zero Books; 2021-06-25; Technological/Suspense/Psychological; Pb-9781789046212, $18.95/£12.99, 384pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789046229, $7.99/£4.99. 6 www.johnhuntpublishing.com
CULTURE & POLITICS (ZER0 BOOKS) Removing the Stalin Stain William Briggs Can Marxism emerge from the long shadow cast by Stalinism, and challenge capitalism? William Briggs gives a rousing defence of Marxism, calling for a return of the working class to the centre of potential struggle.

Unlearning Marx Steve Paxton Why the Soviet failure was a triumph for Marx. "With its robust argument that the collapse of the Soviet Union vindicated rather than disproved Marxian theory, Steve Paxton’s timely book reclaims a vital part of humanity’s conceptual toolbox, just as we witness the persisting dry cough of capitalism approach its distressing conclusion. Highly recommended." Alan Moore, author, Watchmen and V for Vendetta Zero Books; 2021-01-29; Communism, Post-Communism & Socialism/Political/Russia & the Former Soviet Union; Pb-9781789045413, $19.95/£12.99, 184pp, 8.5x5.5inches / 216x140mm, Ebk-9781789045420, $15.99/£10.99. Reality Squared Tom Syverson Reality Squared offers a bold theoretical account of reality television and the conditions of its significance today. "Reality Squared faces down reality TV with the curiosity and seriousness that the subject deserves and so rarely receives.... he cuts to the heart of why and how this form carries political and cultural consequence. From Vanderpump Rules to the reality presidency we’re all forced to watch, Syverson provides a necessary theoretical framework to help us understand a phenomenon that isn’t going anywhere anytime soon."

Decoding Schopenhauer’s Metaphysics Bernardo Kastrup First proposed more than 200 years ago, Schopenhauer's extraordinarily prescient metaphysics offers powerful answers not only to the paradoxes of quantum mechanics, but also to modern philosophical dilemmas such as the hard problem of consciousness.

Still Starving After All These Years Jeri Studebaker Do you want an end to war and inequality? Listen to your starving ancestors for clues to a solution.

Elizabeth I's Last Favourite Sarah-Beth Watkins In Elizabeth I's Last Favourite, Sarah-Beth Watkins brings to life the story of Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex, the young upstart courtier who was the stepson of her most famous love, Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester. Although he tried, throughout his life, to live up to his stepfather's memory, Essex would never be the man he was.
