Insurrection

Citizen Challenges to Corporate Power

Kevin Danaher | Jason Mark

Social Science / Activism & Social Justice

From uncovering major retailers' links to sweatshop abuses and revealing the deception of American tobacco companies, to questioning corporations' ties to repressive dictators, shaming food processors into selling dolphin-safe tuna and demanding that businesses stop destroying old growth forests, citizens have become far more aggressive in directly challenging corporate behavior. Written by two activists who are constantly in the eye of this storm, Insurrection charts the growth of this dissatisfaction and gives us a glimpse of where this movement might be heading.

Described by The New York Times as the ³Paul Revere of globalization¹s woes,² Kevin Danaher is the author or editor of ten books about globalization, and the co-founder of the human rights organization Global Exchange.
