One of them is their return to the principles of direct democracy and their organization around popular assemblies. These ideas are hardly new - Murray Bookchin, who is one of the leading anarchist thinkers of the twentieth century, has been elaborating ideas about popular assemblies for several decades that have influenced thinkers such as David Harvey. The Next Revolution brings together Bookchin's writings on popular assemblies for the first time, just as his ideas are rekindling the radical imagination worldwide\"--\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMurray Bookchin\u003c\/b\u003e was an active voice in the ecology and anarchist movements for more than forty years, and is the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Ecology of Freedom\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003ePost-Scarcity Anarchism\u003c\/i\u003e, among many other books.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8.2 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 06, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53756866429261,"sku":"9781781685815","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/aDNEUWE0UHFUcWdxOUdNWTQyZUYyQT09.webp?v=1776754651","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.us\/products\/the-next-revolution-popular-assemblies-and-the-promise-of-direct-democracy-paperback","provider":"belfastbooks.us","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
