An in-depth look at the Genoa G8 summit and the European Social Forum, from the protesters’ point of view that analyzes a movement from the viewpoints of the activists, organizers, and demonstrators themselves. To understand how this cycle of global protest emerged, della Porta and the other authors examine the interactions between challengers and elites, and discuss how these new models of activism fit into current social movement work. – from publisher information.
