<h3>Political and other views</h3>
Cox is a self-proclaimed <a href="/facts/Democratic_socialism/JGdYaWre">democratic socialist</a> and a <a href="/facts/Scottish_republicanism/jHI2ar1X">Scottish republican</a>. In 2007, he campaigned for the <a href="/facts/Scottish_Labour_Party/PBGSsJWx">Scottish Labour Party</a> in the run-up to that year's <a href="/facts/2007_Scottish_Parliament_election/fEVuIYqe">Scottish Parliament election</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:183" href="#fn:183">183</a> Cox endorsed the <a href="/facts/Scottish_National_Party/szB9zEcs">Scottish National Party</a> (SNP) in the <a href="/facts/2011_Scottish_Parliament_election/pVFVUtnk">2011 Parliament election</a> because of their higher education policy.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:184" href="#fn:184">184</a> In 2020, Cox told former <a href="/facts/Labour_Party_(UK)/jr0wYRdF">Labour Party</a> strategist <a href="/facts/Alastair_Campbell/szXypH72">Alastair Campbell</a> that he was an active and committed Labour supporter all his life until the party's controversial decision under <a href="/facts/Premiership_of_Tony_Blair/xy13pv2r">Tony Blair's premiership</a> to involve the UK in the <a href="/facts/Iraq_War/dlAgf8at">Iraq War</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:185" href="#fn:185">185</a> On 25 May 2012, he spoke in support of <a href="/facts/Scottish_independence/tYF5fwbT">Scottish independence</a> at the <a href="/facts/Yes_Scotland/UBHfU0TV">Yes Scotland</a> campaign, saying he had gradually become disillusioned by <a href="/facts/New_Labour/e7TMyfez">New Labour</a> under <a href="/facts/Tony_Blair/3oytaWsP">Tony Blair</a> and <a href="/facts/Gordon_Brown/kG8lHq8C">Gordon Brown</a>, although Cox could not vote in the <a href="/facts/2014_Scottish_independence_referendum/1jyXspCs">2014 Scottish independence referendum</a> due to his residence in the United States. On 29 January 2015, Cox announced he had quit Labour, believing it had failed to live up to its basic principles in recent years, and joined the SNP, whom he felt was taking forward values of social justice and representing Scotland's best interests.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:186" href="#fn:186">186</a>
In January 2020, Cox called for a second referendum on Scottish independence, saying Labour had "failed" in Scotland and that the <a href="/facts/Scottish_people/0rp2bd12">Scottish people</a> were "organically" moving towards a decision to leave the UK following <a href="/facts/Brexit/M80B3fIg">Brexit</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:187" href="#fn:187">187</a> In October 2020, he acknowledged that he was unlikely to ever return to living in Scotland, citing the weather.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:188" href="#fn:188">188</a> In November 2022, Cox insisted that he did not consider himself a <a href="/facts/Scottish_nationalism/ac2m1v9L">Scottish nationalist</a> and described himself as an <a href="/facts/Anglophile/BoEAPdfq">Anglophile</a>, but believed too many political decisions were being made on Scotland's behalf. Cox also said he favoured a move towards <a href="/facts/Federalism/dNaFu2rM">federalism</a> and constitutional change in the United Kingdom over Scottish independence, commenting, "I don't want to break up the Union but I want another idea for the Union", which he described as "independent states but we come together as a united federation".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:189" href="#fn:189">189</a>
In October 2022, Cox criticised <a href="/facts/Conservative_Party_(UK)/0LPlRq1a">Conservative</a> Prime Minister <a href="/facts/Liz_Truss/e5rfFNsl">Liz Truss</a> in the wake of the <a href="/facts/September_2022_United_Kingdom_mini-budget/5whVwMUX">September 2022 United Kingdom mini-budget</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:190" href="#fn:190">190</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:191" href="#fn:191">191</a> Cox asserted the Conservatives had "no vision" and that he did not believe Truss "is the right person for the job".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:192" href="#fn:192">192</a>
During the <a href="/facts/2021_Israel%25E2%2580%2593Palestine_crisis/xa8LaT5w">2021 Israel–Palestine crisis</a>, Cox signed his name in support of "A Letter Against Apartheid" written by six Palestinian artists.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:193" href="#fn:193">193</a> After the <a href="/facts/Gaza_war/dmUoIpBw">Gaza war</a> broke out in October 2023, Cox signed another letter (<a href="/facts/Artists4Ceasefire/Esayl2DU">Artists4Ceasefire</a>) calling for a ceasefire.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:194" href="#fn:194">194</a> He later recorded himself reading the poem "If I Must Die" by <a href="/facts/Refaat_Alareer/GozE42Qp">Refaat Alareer</a>, a Palestinian writer and professor killed by an Israeli airstrike during the war.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:195" href="#fn:195">195</a>
Cox revealed in an interview to The Guardian that he supported the recreational use of <a href="/facts/Cannabis_(drug)/241fYAGD">cannabis</a>: "It's absolutely great and I recommend it to everyone—get stoned!"<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:196" href="#fn:196">196</a>

Salem to Moscow: An Actors Odyssey spans 30 years in <a href="/facts/Theatre_of_the_United_Kingdom/QI9ro26B">British theatre</a>, beginning in the 1980s, when Cox, despite success on both sides of the Atlantic, was looking for a new sense of purpose for his life and work which culminates having first directed The Crucible at the <a href="/facts/Moscow_Art_Theatre_School/zGC5IsDL">Moscow Art Theatre School</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:226" href="#fn:226">226</a>
In The Lear Diaries, Cox accounts how a group of leading actors approach a major text, providing insight into the pressures that contemporary theatre actors face. He describes the emotional and physical difficulties that came with playing King Lear while also working as a member of an ensemble playing roles in Richard III. His diary also reveals the personal strains of touring, particularly the difficulties of being separated from his family during the company's year-long tour.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:227" href="#fn:227">227</a>
