John Holloway has published widely on Marxist theory, on the Zapatista movement and on new forms of anti-capitalist struggle. His book ‘Change the World Without Taking Power’ (Pluto, London, 2002, new edition 2010) has been translated into eleven languages and has stirred an international debate. His more recent book, ‘Crack Capitalism’ (Pluto, 2010), takes the argument further by suggesting that the only way in which we can think of revolution today is as the creation, expansion, multiplication and confluence of cracks in capitalist domination.

This event is organised in conjunction with Cities and Social Justice Research Cluster, Masters in Global Urban Justice and Leeds Taking Soundings
