Philip McCann, Professor of Economic Geography, University of Groningen An indispensable guide to the complex issues of political economy that Brexit has thrown up. As there is still so much uncertainty about Britain's future relationship with the EU, research and clear insight into how Brexit might affect the different nations, regions and business sectors of the UK is vital. This volume provides just such material.
Nick Pearce, Professor of Public Policy, University of Bath I have no doubt future generations of researchers will acknowledge The Political Economy of Brexit as one of the most important books written by social scientists in the second decade of the twenty-first century. It is a book loaded with meaning and rich in insights for those working in industrial policy, geography, planning, politics, sociology, regional research and urban studies. Importantly, it allows the reader to understand how mass discontent with the impacts of globalization fuelled Brexit and the implications of this vote for the future of all Europe. But its relevance is not limited to the UK. The Political Economy of Brexit provides a rubric for understanding the future economic and political trajectory of many parts of the developed world, including the United States, France, Germany and Australia. A must read.
