{"product_id":"cooking-up-a-revolution-sean-parson-9781526107350","title":"Cooking Up a Revolution: Food Not Bombs, Homes Not Jails, and Resistance to Gentrification","description":"\u003cp\u003eDuring the late 1980s and early 1990s the city of San Francisco waged a war against the homeless. Over 1,000 arrests and citations where handed out by the police to activists for simply distributing free food in public parks. Why would a liberal city arrest activists helping the homeless? In exploring this question, the book treats the conflict between the city and activists as a unique opportunity to examine the contested nature of homelessness and public space while developing an anarchist alternative to liberal urban politics that is rooted in mutual aid, solidarity, and anti-capitalism. In addition to exploring theoretical and political issues related to gentrification, broken-windows policing, and anti-homeless laws, this book provides activists, students and scholars, examples of how anarchist homeless activists in San Francisco resisted these processes.\u003cbr\u003eThis book is relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 2, Zero hunger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sean Parson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 152610735X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526107350\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/05\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2019","brand":"Sean Parson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44068465737983,"sku":"9781526107350","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_77bf4b02-3e27-408a-94cc-99f5f998b829.jpg?v=1685419160","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cooking-up-a-revolution-sean-parson-9781526107350","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
