Illustrating that previous studies on high-risk activism come to contradictory conclusions, Fields of Fire argues that networks rather than individual characteristics are associated with mobilization. This book features unique ethnographic material of a Colombian sugarcane worker strike, interviews with workers and human rights activists in Valle del Cauca and Bogotá reveal different forms of knowledge that activists bring to a social movement. Esparza argues that the combination of these different forms of knowledge bolsters the movement's resiliency in the face of repression. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042025210199,"sku":"9781666927047","price":27.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781666927047.jpg?v=1750952681","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/fields-of-fire-9781666927047","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
