Speeches, articles, presented from 2001 and 2002 on int'l events and gatherings by alternative efforts to bring local democracy to all.

Yeah, reading this 20 years down the line is frankly a bit depressing. The world is not a better place.

i love her, but don't bother with this book.

3.5

un recull d'articles d'opinio, alguns relats d'accions dels antiglobalització, altres anàlisis del sistema més aprofondits, sempre des de la beligerància típica de naomi klein. Val la pena llegir-lo, mantenint sempre una anàlisi crítica del contingut.

L'histoire est vraiment intéressante. Du coup, c'est dommage, mais le style d'écriture de Naomi Klein n'est pas de mon goût.

Going back in time a bit, and probably a bit more honest than her later books

Interesting and good book!

I used to have a used copy of this book. I liked it. Naomi Klein is a pretty kick-ass writer and researcher. This book is a good overview of various perspectives on neoliberal capitalism, and why it's important for you to pay attention and take sides (hopefully with the anti-capitalist direct-democracy types of people, rather than the anti-democratic corporate types or the anti-human religioso-fundies).

My first Naomi Klein book that I just happened to find in the bargain bin. Apparently this isn't considered one of her best, so I have a lot of great books to look forward to, as I really enjoyed this one.

I found this a really great read in the sense that it helped me understand more of the past two decades of current events (Not past the '10's), considering that I was just a child and young teen at this time. It helps me understand more of the under the surface story, or what large media doesn't really convey properly, the counter cultural movement and political activism and protest and why it is.

It really struck a chord with me. I have a vague sense for these things, but reading each well explained chapter, with specific semi-current examples, of the threat to democracy and the fight back really informed me of the specific causes. I may sound naive, and perhaps I am, but this book was enlightening and sparked my interest even more on these issues, and I've already ordered 3 more of her books.

Hajanainen esitys tämä Naomi Kleinin lehtikirjoituksia ja puheita sisältävä teos. Menen hieman väärässä järjestyksessä. En nimittäin ole lukenut hänen No Logo kirjaansa ja sen lukeminen, ehkä avaisi paremmin tätä Vastarintaa ja vaihtoehtoja tekstikokoelmaa. Hajanaisuus on nimittäin häiritsevän suuressa roolissa. Välillä lehtijutut ovat oivallisia ja niistä oikein haistaa toiminnan keskipisteessä olemisen ja välillä taas jauhetaan ja toistetaan jo aiemmin sanottuja ajatuksia. Täytynee seuraavaksi tarttua siihen No Logoon.
