Apex Press Seeds of Fire: Social Development in an Era of Globalism
Wilson and Whitmore, two activists with a history of "walking the talk" of working for social justice, offer a well-researched, provocative wake-up call for everyone concerned with the survival of democracy in the new millenium. Based on a compelling feminist critique of neoliberal globalization, they offer alternative strategies for international social development from the "ground up" through respectful accompaniment with transnational popular movements.

Fernwood Publishing Co Ltd Activism That Works
How do social justice and environmental activists determine or define their effectiveness? This unique consideration shares the stories of eight diverse social justice movements-including the Alberta College of Social Workers, the Calgary Raging Grannies, Oxfam Canada, and the Youth Project of Halifax-as they contemplate their own achievements. Revealing that success is not measured only in large-scale social reform, but is also found in moments of connection, such as in building relationships and raising awareness, this record provides meaningful insights into the struggle against neoliberal capitalism. A contribution to the movements challenging the domination of free market ideology, this book will offer a space for reflecting on the impacts of activist groups.
