Let me start this review by saying that I am not planning on starting a violent revolution. You can call off the black helicopters. This book is split into multiple parts, talking about Tactics, Principles, Theories and Case Studies of activism, starting as early as the '50s and ending as recently as 2010. So, there is a large timespan and a large span of different types of activism that this book is dealing with. This book is not so much a comprehensive manual (each of the 2-3 page chapters could probably expanded into its own book) and more of an overview, with references if you are interested in further information. It features some very interesting concepts, and I'd love to see some of these ideas in modern protests. The book deals almost exclusively with nonviolent techniques, which I like a lot (I dislike violence, no matter how justified you may feel about it in the situation). If you are an aspiring activist (or just interested in the concepts behind activism), definitely give this book a read. I picked it up for $1 when it was on sale, but, in retrospect, it's probably worth paying full price for it. The eBook version is somewhat harder to read than the pdf (or, probably, the paper version), but it's still possible. So, yeah, if you are interested, give this book a try. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
