About this title

Synopsis

'Don't Owe! Won't Pay!', 'Get Rid of them All!', 'No Patents on Life!', 'Food Sovereignty', 'Another World is Possible!' ... The struggles against corporate power and the institutions of globalization grow more courageous and confident year by year.

Millions of people have already become active in rejecting corporate globalization and developing alternatives to it. Millions more know that something is terribly wrong and are ready to begin taking action. This book is for them.

• A history of the movements' emergence.
• An outline of their analyses and aims.
• A digest of the ongoing controversies and dilemmas.
• An inspiring compendium of popular tactics.
