Through concrete empirical examples of movements, workers' struggles, initiatives, and politics in challenging inequality, the authors illustrate transitional compasses' that go beyond protest politics to a generative' politics, a politics of building the alternatives in the interstitial spaces of capitalism. The conceptual framing is oriented around the way in which power is produced and reproduced through intricate relationships between hegemonic projects and everyday life. While power underpins all social relations, it is often taken for granted, as it is frequently hidden behind other social relations. Resistance to power emerges through engendering counter-hegemonic projects that are intertwined with alternative everyday practices.
