Reviews
'People or Multitude, Hegemony or Autonomy, Laclau or Negri? This is the crucial dilemma the age of resistance we have entered poses to theory and politics. This sophisticated volume brings together some of the most interesting younger scholars to examine the many aspects of the dilemma. The alternatives are mapped in their full complexity and are backed with detailed empirical evidence from the movements in Spain, Greece and Occupy. This collection will become a classic in radical political philosophy.' Costas Douzinas, Birkbeck, University of London, UK 'At a time when we have to make sense of the worldwide protests unfolding since 2011 this book comes at exactly the right moment. Intervening into the heated debates around the question of political representation and the necessity of constructing a new left wing hegemony, this book is a must-read for everyone interested in the topic of collective protest.' Oliver Marchart, DA1/4sseldorf Art Academy, Germany
