Minority Rule: Adventures in the Culture War is a 2025 book by British political commentator and academic Ash Sarkar. It was published in the United Kingdom on 27 February 2025.

The book examines how ruling elites exploit cultural divisions to maintain political power and addresses polarised public debates around identity politics in contemporary Britain. Sarkar, who is a senior editor at Novara Media and teaches at the Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam, uses Marxist analysis to critique what she describes as the weaponisation of culture wars by those in power. The book became an instant Sunday Times bestseller upon its release.
