The last three decades have seen an increase in the number of political upheavals that challenge existing power structures, many of them taking the form of urban revolts. This book compellingly explores a series of such upheavals--in Eastern Europe, South Africa, Indonesia, Argentina, Bolivia, Venezuela, sub-Saharan Africa (including Congo, Zimbabwe, Burkina Faso) and Egypt. Each chapter studies the ways in which protest movements developed into insurgent challenges to state power, and the strategies that regimes have deployed to contain and repress revolt.In addition to empirical chapters, the book engages in theorization of revolution, dealing with questions such as the patterning of revolution in contemporary history, the relationship between class struggle and social movements, and the prospects of socialist revolution in the twenty-first century.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 152mmContributor: Colin Barker (Edited by), Gareth Dale (Edited by), Neil Davidson (Edited by)Genre: Law & PoliticsAuthor: Colin BarkerRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
