COMRADE CORBYN: A VERY UNLIKELY COUP: HOW JEREMY CORBYN STORMED TO THE LABOUR LEADERSHIP
Book ID/图书代码： 12100016B86920
English Summary/英文概要： Jeremy Corbyn is the most unlikely revolutionary: a middle-aged, middle-class former grammar schoolboy, who honed his radicalism on the mean streets of rural Shropshire. Until recently, he was barely known outside political circles, yet today he is the leader of the Labour Party having won by a landslide, riding a wave of popular enthusiasm.
When he was first persuaded to run, not even Corbyn himself dreamed he would somehow tap into a summer 2015 zeitgeist, an unforeseen populist fervour for change. The thought of being leader was initially said to terrify him.
So how did this very British iconoclast manage to snatch the leadership of a party he spent forty years rebelling against? Who is he and where did he come from? And what exactly happened over the space of an extraordinary summer to propel an old lefty called Jeremy to inspire and excite hundreds of thousands of people, and breathe new life into the socialist ideals he has, almost alone, held true to for so many years?
From Corbyn’s cosy rural upbringing, through three marriages - including his decision to divorce one wife for sending their son to grammar school - and his long espousal of contentions causes, including Irish republicanism and a free Palestine, Comrade Corbyn is the story of the most unexpected leadership contest ever to take place in modern British politics.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 杰里米•科尔宾是最不可能的革命者：中年人，中产阶级的文法学校男生，在乡下什罗普郡的穷街陋巷磨练了他的激进主义。直到最近，他在政治圈中无人不知，然而今天，他成为工党的领袖，获得了压倒性的胜利，收货了一大波大众热情。
他第一次被说服去竞选，不是因为科尔宾自己梦想打开2015年夏天的时代精神，而是平民主义者对改革意料之外的热情。成为领导者的想法最初让他感到惶恐。
所以这个反抗传统观念的英国人是如何设法夺得了他四十年来一直反对的工党的领导权的呢？他是谁，他从哪里来的？这个不平凡的夏天究竟发生了，推动了这个叫杰瑞米的老年左撇子激励着成千上万的人，并为他这么多年一直单独坚守的社会主义理想注入新的生命？
从科尔宾在舒适的乡村的成长，到他经历的三次婚姻——包括他因为送他们的儿子去文法学校而和妻子离婚的决定，他对竞争观点的长期支持，包括爱尔兰共和主义和自由的巴勒斯坦，《科尔宾同志》讲述了发生在现代英国政界最意想不到的竞选的故事。（LNL）
