Books & Films — No Is Not Enough
Description
The 2016 election of Donald Trump was a dangerous escalation in a world of cascading crises.
No Is Not Enough was published in 2017 after Donald Trump’s first election win and described how Trump’s vision—including a corporate coup in government, aggressive scapegoating and warmongering, and sweeping aside climate science to set off a fossil fuel frenzy—will generate waves of disasters and shocks to the economy, national security, and the environment.
Naomi Klein has spent over two decades studying political shocks, climate change, and “brand bullies.” In No Is Not Enough, she explains that Trump, extreme as he is, is not an aberration but a logical extension of the worst and most dangerous trends of the past half-century—the very conditions that have unleashed a rising tide of fascism the world over.
It is not enough to merely resist, to say “no.” Our historical moment demands more: a credible and inspiring “yes,” a roadmap to reclaiming the populist ground from those who would divide us—one that sets a bold course for winning the fair and caring world we want and need.
In No Is Not Enough, Naomi Klein exposes the malignant forces behind Trump’s rise to his first presidency, and puts forward a bold vision for a mass movement to counter rising militarism, nationalism, and corporatism in the US and around the world.

Praise Quotes
Emma Thompson
“No Is Not Enough is the absolute must-read book of the Trump era. Naomi Klein lays out exactly what we need to know about how we got here, and ends with a clarion call to channel our despair and outrage into action. This book is inspiring and energy-giving. Like a little sun.”
Arundhati Roy
“An ordinary person’s guide to hope. Read this book.”
Cornel West
“Naomi Klein is one of the few revolutionary public intellectuals of great integrity and vision.”
Owen Jones, author, The Establishment: And How They Get Away with It
“Ceaselessly illuminating, daring, and indispensable. As accessible as it is brilliant . . . essential.”
Praise Reviews
Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
“A blueprint for combating Trumpism and the corporatist policies of his predecessors that made his rise possible. With a genuine sense of hope, Naomi Klein illuminates paths to collectively forge an ecologically sound, anticapitalist order.”
The Guardian, Paul Mason
“In No Is Not Enough, Naomi Klein anatomizes the roots of Trump in the already dystopian world of corporate-ruled America and predicts the ‘end run around democracy’. A clear and readable guide to action, if it is action you are contemplating.”
Publishers Weekly, Best Books of 2017
“This year’s most immediately useful political book.”
The Guardian, Hari Kunzru
“Klein’s background and expertise allow her to pull together the disparate threads of what it would be misleading to call ‘Trumpism’, if only because of the unwarranted suggestion of system and control. She insists, rightly in my view, that there is a need to promote a positive alternative social vision, and that ostensibly ‘utopian’ aims and proposals are a way to avoid being caught in a politics that is merely reactive or timidly reformist.”
The Globe and Mail
“[A]nyone struggling for a place to even start making sense of Trump, and Trumpism, will find a book abounding in insight . . . . Without lapsing into corny cheeriness or the puffed-up cant of centrist political cliché (‘Love Trumps Hate!’), Naomi Klein holds out a cautious hope for the despairing age: an honest, prescriptive belief that people can unite in their opposition to Trumpism to build a better world.”
Jacobin
“The desire to radically challenge capitalism is widespread and growing. Klein’s new book is an important contribution to that project.”
