“Another Politics is a much needed and indispensable exploration of the roots of efforts to develop radical politics leading up to Occupy Wall Street and beyond. With the collaboration of dozens of those involved in this process, Chris Dixon provides guidance for transformational change.” —Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, author of An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States “The product of a major research effort, based on more than two hundred interviews and conversations with organizers from contemporary social movements, Chris Dixon’s Another Politics is an invaluable book. It is a map to a new world of struggles and organizational forms, outside the logic of traditional political parties and unions, written with great clarity, insightfulness, and ability to listen to the new voices of our time. All those aspiring to be part of a broad process of social change should have Dixon’s book on their shelves.” —Silvia Federici, author of Revolution at Point Zero and Caliban and the Witch"Another Politics is an insightful, much-needed contribution to US and Canadian movements working for transformative change.  Chris Dixon provides a clear framework for interpreting the methods being developed across our local experiments and contextualizes them in the longer trajectories from which they developed.  Another Politics is revealing and energizing—it will be a great tool for scholars of social movements in activist reading groups and university classrooms.  It will also help activists engaged in vibrant local work learn about each other’s projects and approaches.  This book helps us understand what we’re doing, how we came to be doing it and why." —Dean Spade, author of Normal Life: Administrative Violence, Critical Trans Politics and the Limits of Law
