Failed State: Why Britain Doesn't Work and How We Fix It by Sam Freedman is a clear-eyed look at why key British institutions struggle to deliver for ordinary people. Drawing on policy analysis and real-world examples, the book examines the failures behind public services, governance, and long-term reform.
Thoughtful and accessible, it will appeal to readers interested in politics, public policy, and social change. Failed State explores what is broken, why it matters, and the practical ideas that could help build a better functioning system.
