  • Taylor & Francis Criminalizing Dissent

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisWhile liberal-democratic states like America, Britain and Australia claim to value freedom of expression and the right to dissent, they have always actually criminalized dissent. This disposition has worsened since 9/11 and the 2008 Great Recession. This ground-breaking study shows that just as dissent involves far more than protest marches, so too liberal-democratic states have expanded the criminalization of dissent. Drawing on political and social theorists like Arendt, Bourdieu and Isin, the book offers a new way of thinking about politics, dissent and its criminalization relationally. Using case studies like the Occupy movement, selective refusal by Israeli soldiers, urban squatters, democratic education and violence by anti-Apartheid activists, the book highlights the many forms dissent takes along with the many ways liberal-democratic states criminalize it. The book highlights the mix of fear and delusion in play when states privilege security to protect an imagTrade Review"Filling a gap in the social science literature, Rob Watts engages in a powerful defence of the right to dissent, which is defined as fundamental given the irreducible pluralism of ideas in every society. Bridging social theory with empirical analysis of recent forms of criminalization of acts of resistance, he convincingly challenges the myth of liberal democracy as tolerant of disagreement and points at the complex - and not always rational - relations between fear, security and liberalism."- Donatella della Porta, Professor of Political Science and Political Sociology, European University Institute, Italy"Rob Watts' Criminalizing Dissent could not appear at a more important moment. In a careful, deliberate manner, he undertakes to explain not just what dissent is and the many forms it can take in liberal democracies, but also why it is so important that we protect it. This is a timeless lesson that seems especially relevant now."- Sophia Rosenfeld, Walter H. Annenberg Professor of History, University of Pennsylvania, USTable of ContentsIntroduction 1.

  • Taylor & Francis AntiFascism Gender and International Communism

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisAnti-Fascism, Gender, and International Communism provides a comprehensive history of the Comite mondial des femmes contre la guerre et le fascisme (CMF), an international womenâs organisation concerned with confronting the impact of fascism on women and children across the globe. Women played an essential role in the international struggle against fascism during the interwar period, although a focus on the efforts of men and political figures by the historiography has largely overshadowed womenâs interventions against right-wing dictatorships. Through an examination of the committeeâs key figures, strategies, connections, and campaigns, this book offers a significant contribution to the histories of both womenâs activism and anti-fascist activism by positioning the CMF as an important contributor to international political advocacy in the interwar period. Further, the groupâs association with international communism and the burgeoning Popular Front movement p
