Recenzje

'In a fascinating set of case-studies, ranging from Israel to China, from Latin America to Japan, Inbal Ofer, Tamar Groves and their co-authors offer an insightful account of how the boundaries between the private and the public sphere and the very notion of citizenship are being redefined. Their book represents a distinctive contribution to the burgeoning literature on the recent waves of global protest.' - Mario Diani, University of Trento and ICREA-UPF Barcelona
