In many parts of the world, the group identities that matter most   o the ones that people will kill and die for   o are ethnic, religious, sectarian or clan-based. Time and time again our blindness to tribalism has undermined our foreign policy.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAt home, we have recently witnessed the rise of identity politics, a movement that encourages us to define ourselves against, and thereby exclude, others. The shock results of the US election and the Brexit referendum show that tribalism is a social truth that we ignore at our peril. When people are defined by their differences to each other, extremism becomes the common ground, and the grand ideals of democracy have a hard time competing with a more primal need to belong.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIf we are to transcend our political tribes, we must rediscover a broader, more nuanced unity that acknowledges the reality of our group differences. Insightful, challenging and provocative, Amy Chua's groundbreaking book could not be more timely.","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47509026373790,"sku":"UBD-9781408881538","price":27.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781408881538.jpg?v=1780639826","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781408881538","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
