This is a fine and rousing book, and required reading for Messrs Miliband and Cruddas. What its heroic authors say is true, timely and damned difficult. But to outface the monster of corporate capitalism, protean, international but nonetheless fissiparous, often cowardly, always corrupt, Ash Amin and Nigel Thrift have contrived this novel and vigorous weapon of dissent, so much required to fight the rough beast of a new epoch now slouching towards Wall Street to be born." - Fred Inglis (Times Higher Education) This book makes a much-needed attempt to revamp the Lefts struggle to voice a politics of social equality and justice. Problematizing the Lefts ongoing failure to capture and cohere peoples aspirations, to organize politically and to secure achievements, they focus on an essential and, as they rightly claim, neglected aspect of Left politics: the art of doing politics." - Jessica Schmidt (Radical Philosophy) "This book is about what the Left should be proud of, what it can do to recapture the imagination of peoples to energize them into social action, and what horizons lay ahead in terms of actionable strategies. . . . [ M]any of us interested in tipping the scales of justice on the side of integrity and dignity should be reading this wonderful and very useful book. - Eduardo Mendieta (City) "The authors of this provocative and insightful book promote an attitude of innovation and experimentation as a means to revive the fortunes of the western Left." - James Martin (European Political Science)
