{"product_id":"9781783604128","title":"First Measures of the Coming Insurrection","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe have witnessed a beginning, the birth of a new age of revolt and upheaval. In North Africa and the Middle East it took the people a matter of days to topple what were supposedly entrenched regimes. Now, to the west, multiple crises are etching away at a ‘democratic consensus’ that has, since the 1970s, plagued and suppressed any sparks of revolutionary potential. It is time to prepare for the coming insurrection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this bold and beautifully written book, Eric Hazan and Kamo provide a short account of what is to be done in the aftermath of a regime’s demise: how to prevent any power from restoring itself and how to reorganize society without a central authority and according to the people’s needs. They argue that neither a leadership reshuffle, in the guise of constitutional progress, nor a transition period between a capitalist social order and a communist horizon will do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eFirst Measures of the Coming Insurrection\u003c\/i\u003e is more than the voice of a new generation of revolutionaries; it is the manual for the coming global revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zed Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131561984240,"sku":"9781783604128","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781783604128_p0.jpg?v=1763724262","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781783604128","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
