Naomi Klein's writing is clear, direct and incisive. A collection of essays about corporate power and popular resistance.

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.

Fantastic, prophetic, depressingly topical, but still and urgent message that too many have and will continue to ignore.

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

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

A solid follow up/postscript to her book No Logo.

Compelling writings that are very much of their time. It also made me appreciate how good of a writer Klein is today - these pieces are strong but the deftness and precision of her language today is not present.

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

Una serie di articoli scritti dalla Klein nell'arco di alcuni anni a partire da seattle, e dell'inizio del movimento antiglobalizzazione, per passare da Porto Alegre, senza dimenticare Genova e le torri gemelle.
Un bignami su cosa è il movimento, dove va, che cosa vuole, perché lo vuole, e, soprattutto, sul perché è nel nostro interesse essere d'accordo con il movimento e non con la Banca Mondiale e l'FMI.

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).

This book was pretty okay, but I'm not going to lie, I didn't read the whole thing. It turns out books about current events become a lot less interesting when the events aren't current anymore.

“Огради и прозорци” на Нейоми Клайн разказва за битката срещу новия световен ред

Нейоми Клайн е една от лидерите на световното алтерглобалистично движение. Да, това са онези от телевизионните кадри, които се събират на срещите на МФВ, Световната банка и други людоеди, и които полицията бие, обгазява и арестува с нестихваща страст.
“Огради и прозорци” разказва за появата и развитието на това движение – от прочутите сблъсъци в Сиатъл (има хубав филм за тях), през следващите години, в които авторката посочва убедителното нарастване на насилие, използвано срещу протестиращите.
