Recenzje

Seeing Like an Activist is a tour de force, and a joy to read. It is going to transform how political theorists see civil disobedience, and it offers a master class on how to do truly democratic political theoryDLtheory that grows out of democratic actors' practices, rather than trying to fit those actors into existing theories. Political theorists, historians, philosophers, and really everyone else should all read it. If you want to think about what nonviolent direct action can mean for democracy, in the past, present, and/or future, you need to read Pineda's book.
