Discription
An account of the thinking rather than the events, so differs from many of the other books on the subject
Includes contributions from numerous protagonists, among them Barbara Kingsolver, Naomi Klein and Ursula Le Guin.
The authors/editors are active participants of the movement. Both are based in New York and available for media work.
Scholarly interest in the Occupy movement is extremely strong. This collection will be essential in classrooms in a wide variety of the social sciences - sociology, history, political science - as well as in the humanities and in interdisciplinary fields like American Studies
Like the collections published at strategic moments in the history of the
social movements that precede Occupy, this will have a special role to
play in the movement's development and impact.
