Rezensionen

Those of us rooted in radical critiques of unjust and unsustainable systems are often told we must moderate our views to be practical. The authors in this volume remind us that an honest assessment of contemporary crises makes it clear that the only practical strategies to create a more just and sustainable world are, in fact, the ones rooted in radical thinking. These essays draw on the best of the past thinking and articulate new directions in which we need to go. -- Robert Jensen, author of All My Bones Shake: Seeking a Progressive Path to the Prophetic Voice author of All My Bones Shake: Seeking a Progr Mark Major has assembled an impressive collection of radical thinkers, each of whom points the way towards creation of a new, more democratic, more humane and less imperialist America. Read it, and then get to work! -- Dave Lindorff, veteran journalist and author of The Case for Impeachment
