#40 David Edgerton on Britain and the declinist narrative [PATRONS ONLY]
Added 2019-03-19 13:45:49 +0000 UTCDavid Edgerton joins me to discuss his new book, 'The Rise and Fall of the British Nation: A Twentieth-Century History'. We spoke about British declinism, the way declinist narratives structure understandings of modern British history and the political uses to which declinism has been put, both on the left and the right and by the architects of the Brexit project.
