Reviews
"The workplace has become politicised as never before and companies are struggling to adjust to the demands of younger consumers and employees... [Woke Capitalism] examines the history of this phenomenon - from corporate social responsibility, through neoliberalism and the debates about the topic - as well as the political causes it has adopted and the implications for all of us." Financial Times
"Carl Rhodes explores how the corporate world's calculated embrace of social justice poses a significant societal threat. This book not only unveils the hypocrisies and self-serving nature of 'woke capitalism', but also its pernicious effect on democracy." LSE Review of Books
"Revealing the history of woke capitalism from the 1950s through to today, this is a must-read for anyone interested in current affairs, political debate, and how to truly advance transformative causes and movements." Love Reading
