<p><b>LONGLISTED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE 2018 </b><br><b><i><br>SUNDAY TIMES, GUARDIAN</i>, <i>TELEGRAPH </i>AND <i>ECONOMIST</i> BOOKS OF THE YEAR 2017<br><br>'A provocative take on the UK's new tribal divisions ... a book whose timing is pitch-perfect' Andrew Marr</b><br><br>Many Remainers reported waking up the day after the Brexit vote feeling as if they were living in a foreign country. In fact, they were merely experiencing the same feeling that many British people have felt every day for years. <br><br> Fifty years ago, people in leafy North London and people in working-class Northern towns could vote for a Labour party that broadly encompassed all of their interests. Today their priorities are poles apart. <br><br> In this groundbreaking and timely book, Goodhart shows us how people have come to be divided into two camps: the 'Anywheres', who have 'achieved' identities, derived from their careers and education, and 'Somewheres', who get their identity from a sense of place and from the people around them, and who feel a sense of loss due to mass immigration and rapid social change.<br><br> In a world increasingly divided by Brexit and Trump, Goodhart shows how Anywheres must come to understand and respect Somewhere values to stand a fighting chance against the rise of populism.</p>
