Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on Extinction Rebellion (XR) as a social movement, the book critiques its analysis, strategy, and tactics. The authors argue that XR's underdeveloped and apolitical perspective on necessary changes for climate action allows for broad coalition-building but ultimately hinders the pursuit of systemic transformation. Through this examination, the book raises important questions about the effectiveness and direction of XR's approach to addressing climate change.
