In this eye-opening new book, popular philosopher Ben Irvine challenges one of the most enduring myths of our society: that the scourge of racism is mainly to be found on the right wing of politics. Irvine shows that the most extreme socialist regimes of the past have all been extremely racist. Time and again, under the guise of promoting ‘racial harmony’, socialist revolutionaries have accused an entire race of being ‘capitalists’, and attacked that race for being an obstacle to utopia. Alas, from the Soviets and the Nazis to the Khmer Rouge and Hutu Power, and the socialist provocateurs who radicalised Islam in the twentieth century, the lessons of history’s most brutal regimes have not been learned. Racist socialism is on the rise again today, putting us all in danger. 

Irvine’s book provides a wake-up call. A resounding defence of Western values and a rejection of the politics of division and hate, Racist Socialism: A Warning from History will change the way you view the world and your own place in it.
