{"product_id":"globalizing-resistance-the-state-of-struggle-9780745323558","title":"Globalizing Resistance The State of Struggle","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is an indispensible handbook for global activists that takes the \u003cbr\u003e\nreader on a round-the-world tour of resistance to neoliberal \u003cbr\u003e\nglobalization.  Although the anti-globalization movement is truly \u003cbr\u003e\nglobal, each region has its own specific groups and agendas. Most books \u003cbr\u003e\nconcentrate on the European and American movements. This book is \u003cbr\u003e\ndifferent -- writers and activists from every continent summarise what's\u003cbr\u003e\n going on in their area to provide a truly international view of \u003cbr\u003e\nalternative social and political struggles.  From Bolivia to New \u003cbr\u003e\nZealand, from South Africa to Russia and China, these struggles against \u003cbr\u003e\ncapitalism, privatisation, social exclusion and exploitation are \u003cbr\u003e\nmobilising many thousands. Increasingly, these groups are exchanging \u003cbr\u003e\nideas, particularly at the new Social Forums of Porto Alegre and Mumbai.\u003cbr\u003e\n   This book examines what has been achieved so far. The authors examine\u003cbr\u003e\n the World Social Forums as a dynamic for moving things forward. They \u003cbr\u003e\nexplore the global anti-war movement and the successful mobilisation for\u003cbr\u003e\n the protests of 15th February 2003; they analyse new media strategies; \u003cbr\u003e\nand they offer a disturbing account on new police arrangements to \u003cbr\u003e\ncontrol demonstrators.  Edited by François Polet, who is a member of the\u003cbr\u003e\n Tricontinental Centre and the World Forum for Alternatives -- a group \u003cbr\u003e\nthat plays a prominent role in the World Social Forums -- the book \u003cbr\u003e\nincludes contributions from Donatella della Porta, Boaventura de Sousa \u003cbr\u003e\nSantos, Verity Burgmann, Paola Manduca and Bernard Dreano.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"François Polet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44212647526460,"sku":"9780745323558","price":590.75,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/7706\/7836\/files\/globalizing-resistance-the-state-of-struggle-9780745323558.jpg?v=1776698548","url":"https:\/\/libertybooksstore.myshopify.com\/products\/globalizing-resistance-the-state-of-struggle-9780745323558","provider":"LibertyBooksStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
