John Kampfner New Book Braver New World To Be Published 16 April 2026

John Kampfner’s forthcoming book, Braver New World: The Countries Daring to Do Things Others Won’t, is out with Atlantic Books on 16 April 2026.

What makes John’s work distinctive is that he does not treat political and social paralysis as inevitable. This new book looks at countries trying to solve hard problems with seriousness, imagination and practical courage — from social care and housing to health, education and energy.

John brings a combination of political understanding, international perspective and editorial rigour to his work and the book is a timely new contribution to the wider conversation — and one that will add real depth to the discussions he is already leading.
