Critics Review
Student Resistance in the Age of Chaos is a dangerous book for authoritarian and dictatorial leaders. This book can only inspire and guide a next generation of pro-democracy activists. This history-rich book, that tells unique stories and explains creative tactics of social movements, is an antidote to rising authoritarianism and populism in politics across the globe. An immensely important book in these times of political crisis! –Inna Shevchenko, FEMEN “Comprehensive and powerful, Mark Boren’s Student Resistance endows the reader with a sense of agency, and hope.” –Aric McBay”An incomparable tour de force.” –Peter McLaren
