Reviews

This book is riveting, moving, and profoundly important for those who want to know what revolution in our time might look like. - Rebecca Solnit, on Marina Sitrin's Horizontalism The most substantial and comprehensive work on workers' control and self-management today. - Gary Younge, on Dario Azzellini's Ours to Master and to Own The movements documented in this volume succeeded in shutting cities down through tremendous shows of force. And when you shut down a city, you can actually stop capital accumulation - Until we start building a truly democratic society, we will continue to see our good ideas co-opted by capital. - from the foreword by David Harvey


The most substantial and comprehensive work on workers' control and self-management today. --Gary Younge, on Dario Azzellini s Ours to Master and to Own
