Sinopsis

Incendiary and heartrending, these sixteen essays lay bare government brutality against the working class, asylum-seekers, ethnic minorities, and all who are deemed of ''a lower order.'' Drawing parallels between atrocities committed against the Kurds by the Turkish State, and the racist police brutality, and government sanctioned murders in the UK, James Kelman shatters the myth of Western exceptionalism, revealing the universality of terror campaigns levied against the most vulnerable, and calling on a global citizenship to stand in solidarity with victims of oppression.
