About this title

Synopsis

The protests in Seattle in 1999, and Québec City and Genoa in 2001 brought the anti-corporate globalization movement to wide public awareness. But what are the roots of this movement, and where is it going? Now in its second reprinting, Another World Is Possible traces the movement's progress since 1994, and makes the case for the continued development of its anti-capitalist analysis and activism. David McNally considers contemporary social activists, and the political and economic orders they resist, in the context of historical capitalism in all its racial, gendered, and imperialist dimensions. Drawing on the experiences of radical movements of workers, peasants, and indigenous peoples in Mexico, Korea, Bolivia, Indonesia, and Brazil among other countries, he sketches out an alternative, deeply radical politics based on diversity, internationalism, and moving beyond commodification and the market.
