The North Will Rise Again Av Alex Niven

<b>An in-depth exploration of the importance of the North of England in the modern era.</b><i>The North Will Rise Again</i> covers the colourful adventures of its inhabitants, the expansiveness and optimism that defines Northern culture, and the recurrent sense of failure and despair that is at the heart of one of the West¿s most impoverished regions. By telling the story of the North in the last few decades, Alex goes in search of answers to some of the big questions at the forefront of British politics and society today, touching on live issues including the North/South divide, austerity, the impact of Brexit, the collapse of Labour¿s ¿Red Wall¿, and calls for regional devolution. He concludes with a powerful argument for a revival of northern politics and society by way of what he calls ¿radical regionalism¿.A native Northerner himself, having returned to his home city of Newcastle with his family in the last few years, Alex also includes elements of memoir and stories from his own
