Whose streets? Our streets! In Rebel Cities David Harvey shows us
how we might turn this slogan into a reality. That task-and this
book-could hardly be more important.
*Benjamin Kunkel, author of Indecision and a founding editor
of N+1*
David Harvey provoked a revolution in his field and has inspired a
generation of radical intellectuals.
*Naomi Klein*
Forensic and ferocious.
*Guardian*
Harvey's clarion demand [is] that it is 'we,' not the developers,
corporate planners, or political elites, who truly build the city,
and only we who can seize back our right to its control.
*Open Democracy*
Intellectuals in the Occupy movement [will] appreciate Rebel
Cities' descriptions of the historic and international parallel of
urban struggles to reclaim public space and build culture, and be
intrigued by Harvey's musings on how to grow a lively, resilient
revolutionary anticapitalist movement.
*Publisher's Weekly*
A consistent intelligent voice of the left.
