GLOBALIZE LIBERATION GIVES VOICE
& A HOW-TO GUIDE TO THE "NEW RADICALISM"

New strategies, tools, understandings and inspiration from the new radicalism that is challenging Bush, empire, war and the system behind them worldwide.

"New radicalism" is a term used to describe the diverse movement of movements that is inspiring millions to flood the streets in resistance and to take action in their own communities. The new radicalism is new both in how popular and widespread it has become, and in its original methods of organizing for change.

Globalize Liberation weaves together the experiences and insights of community organizers, direct-action movements, and global justice struggles from North America, Europe, and Latin America. It offers clear analysis of our root problems, new strategies and tools for radical change, and examples of effective organizing campaigns and popular rebellions‹from the popular rebellion in Argentina to the tomato fields of Florida, and from the anti-prison organizing in California¹s Central Valley to the direct action antiwar shutdown of San Francisco¹s Financial District.

David Solnit‹an organizer of the successful shutdowns of the WTO in Seattle in 1999 and of San Francisco¹s financial district in 2003, and a cofounder of Art and Revolution, which helped popularize street theater in mass actions across North America‹edits the collection of thirty-three essays. His introduction explains how the shared principles of this new radicalism connect grassroots struggles across the planet into an unprecedented and hopeful global insurgency.
