Challenging Authoritarian Capitalism: The Transformative Power of the World Social Forum: Rethinking Globalizations
Editat de Thomas Wallgren, Uddhab Pyakurel, Catalina Revollo Pardo, Teivo Teivainenen Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 mai 2024
Since the first meeting in Porto Alegre, Brazil, in January 2001, at least hundreds of thousands of activists have contributed to WSF activities locally, regionally, and globally. In the early years of the WSF, high hopes were often associated with the pink wave in Latin America, the Arab Spring, and similar events elsewhere. Many foresaw the coming of a systemic crisis and some activist-intellectuals even predicted with some accuracy the outbreak of the financial crisis. But not many predicted the strengthening of authoritarian capitalism that followed. The focus of this edited volume is on the multiple practices of struggle, organization, and conceptual innovation expressed in the main WSF slogan since 2001: "Another world is possible."
Most chapters in this book were originally published in the journal Globalizations.

Descriere
The World Social Forum (WSF) was conceived as a platform for exchange of experiences and interlinking effective action. In this book, leading intellectual-activists from four continents take stock of the WSF-experience so far and suggest new paths for collaboration between all who build other possible worlds.
