Description
Paul Kingsnorth's One No, Many Yeses explores the global resistance movement that has emerged in recent years, uniting millions in their opposition to the global economy. This movement, which began in Mexico in 1994, has since spread across the world, with protests and demonstrations taking place every month of every year.
The author travelled to four continents to visit the epicentres of the movement, meeting individuals from diverse backgrounds and experiencing the movement's energy firsthand. From tear-gassing in Genoa to painting puppets in Johannesburg, Kingsnorth's journey provides a unique insight into the movement's goals and methods.
This book tells the story of a new political idea, one that opposes the status quo and seeks to create a different future. With its focus on diversity and unity, the movement offers a fresh perspective on the traditional left-right divide. One No, Many Yeses is a thought-provoking exploration of the global resistance movement and its potential to shape the course of history.
