In this new presentation of the Gospels, Terry Eagleton makes a powerful and provocative argument for Jesus Christ as a social, political and moral radical, a friend of anti-imperialists, outcasts and marginals, a champion of the poor, the sick and immigrants, and as an opponent of the rich, religious hierarchs, and hypocrites everywhere--in other words, as a figure akin to revolutionaries like Robespierre, Marx, and Che Guevara.

Publisher: Akashic Books: June 2002

Seller ID: 452165

ISBN: 1888451335

Binding: Trade Paperback

Condition: Used - Good

A refreshingly non-doctrinaire collection of writings on the theory, practice, and history of anti-capitalist politics from the most well-versed activists and scholars in the movement. Since the demonstrations against the World Trade Organization in Seattle two years ago, the world has witnessed the emergence of a brand new left. Largely focusing on such issues as third-world debt reduction and the emergence of a decidedly undemocratic transnational political order, this new progressivism is a rich and complex phenomenon which demands careful analysis to understand its ascendance ten years aft...

User's Guide to the Crisis of Civilization: And How to Save It

By: Ahmed, Nafeez Mosaddeq

Price: $6.00

Seller ID: 410971

ISBN: 0745330533

Binding: Trade Paperback

Condition: Used - Good

It often seems that different crises are competing to devastate civilisation. This book argues that financial meltdown, dwindling oil reserves, terrorism and food shortages need to be considered as part of the same ailing system.

Most accounts of our contemporary global crises such as climate change, or the threat of terrorism, focus on one area, or another, to the exclusion of others. Nafeez Mosaddeq Ahmed argues that the unwillingness of experts to look outside their own fields explains why there is so much disagreement and misunderstanding about particular crises. This book attempts ...

First published in 1971, Rules for Radicals is Saul Alinsky's impassioned counsel to young radicals on how to effect constructive social change and know "the difference between being a realistic radical and being a rhetorical one."

A critique of capital through the lens of war, and a critique of war through the lens of the revolution of 1968.

"We are at war," declared the President of the French Republic on the evening of November 13, 2015. But what is this war, exactly?

In Wars and Capital, ric Alliez and Maurizio Lazzarato propose a counter-history of capitalism to recover the reality of the wars that are inflicted on us and denied to us. We experience not the ideal war of philosophers, but wars of class, race, sex, and gender; wars of civilization and the environment; wars of subjectivity...
