"Crack Capitalism," argues that radical change can only come about through the creation, expansion and multiplication of weak points, or "cracks" in the capitalist system.
John Holloway's previous book, "Change the World Without Taking Power," sparked a world-wide debate among activists about the most effective methods of resisting capitalism. Now Holloway rejects the idea of a disconnected plurality of struggles and finds a unifying contradiction -- the opposition between the time we spend working as part of the system and our excess "doing" where we revolt and refuse to be subsumed.
Clearly and accessibly presented in the form of 33 theses, "Crack Capitalism" is set to reopen the debate among radical scholars and activists seeking to break capitalism.
