A batch of the best highlights from what Jophin's read, .
We welcome discussions about the shortcomings of actually existing social movements and their lack of political analyses, and we want social movements influenced by prefigurative ideas to have better access to political writing and to take strategic questions more seriously (that's one of the reasons we have written this book).

Give a Man a Fish
James Ferguson
