The emphasis of the book is on the core idea that creating spaces for listening to voices of resistance fosters openings for the politics of social change?interweaving the stories of the local, the national, and the global. The book is divided into chapters addressing the politics of resistance in the contexts of global economic policies, agriculture, education, health, poverty, and development.
