Spaces of Encounter A Note on Methodology: Convivial Research, Collective Ethnography, Insurgent LearningReviews“Far from utopian, a world without policing is being made every day in the community struggles for care recounted here with such urgency and insight. The War on the Social Factory is an exemplary model of collaborative research grounded in the life-affirming battles against the death-dealing system of the carceral state.” —Dan Berger, author of Stayed on Freedom: The Long History of Black Power through One Family's Journey “A powerful indictment of the direct and manufactured forms of state violence that threaten the lives of many Black and brown people in the San Francisco Bay Area, Annie Paradise’s compelling ethnography is also a testament to the critical insights and perseverance of the women activists—mothers and others—who bear witness to it and pursue alternative visions of justice and community safety.” —Eric Porter, author of A People's History of SFO: The Making of the Bay Area and an Airport “As state violence in service of racial patriarchal capitalism escalates—seemingly unabated—The War on the Social Factory offers crucial insights into community resistance.
