"The car is no longer just a source of missions. Today it is the sensuous form taken by the fusion of a century of nationalist and petromodernist fantasy. To protect their fantasy, the new right doesn't simply deny climate change, but fabricates alternative emergencies in its place: the globalist elites, the woke mobs, the green technocrats are coming to take our freedoms. This is the inverted crisis that the book anatomises with characteristic panache, and shrewdness. No one is better at this than the Zetkin Collective, and their latest book is an essential, sober and furious guide to our political future" --Richard Seymour, author of Disaster Nationalism "This is an indispensable chronicle, cartography and critique of the virulent far-Right backlash against even the most timid efforts at energy transition. What Henri Lefebvre once called capitalism's 'object-king', the car, is revealed here as the nexus of racist moral panics, authoritarian anti-statism and fossil capital's lucrative impunity. The Great Right Driving Show shows how we are motoring toward the fascist future on a highway of climate denialism and why any genuine anti-fascism must put decarbonisation at the top of its agenda." --Alberto Toscano, author of Late Fascism.
