Anticapitalism: A Beginner's Guide

by Simon Tormey - £9.99  Oneworld Publications (2013)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781780742502 | ISBN 10: 1780742509

The financial crisis, bank bailouts, and the dash to austerity have breathed new life into protest movements across the globe, and brought anti-capitalist ideas to the mainstream. But what does it mean to be anti-capitalist? And where is anti-capitalism going — if anywhere?
 
Simon Tormey explores these questions and more in the only accessible introduction to the full spectrum of anti-capitalist ideas and politics. With nuance and verve, he introduces the reader to the wide variety of positions and groups that make up the movement, including anarchists, Marxists, autonomists, environ mentalists, and more. Providing essential global and historical context, Tormey takes us from the 1968 upsurge of radical politics to the 1994 Zapatista insurrection, the 1999 Seattle protests, and right up to Occupy and the uprisings across the Eurozone.
 
This is a fascinating and bold exploration of how to understand the world – and how to change it.
