Summary
A call to arms by a group of French intellectuals that rejects leftist reform and aligns itself with younger, wilder forms of resistance.
“Thirty years of ‘crisis,’ mass unemployment, and flagging growth, and they still want us to believe in the economy… We have to see that the economy is itself the crisis. It’s not that there’s not enough work, it’s that there is too much of it.”

Critics Review
”…without a doubt the most thought-provoking radical text to be published in thepast ten years. It deserves to be read and discussed.” Daniel Miller NewStatesman
Any book indirectly responsible for massive raids involving helicopters and anti-terrorist police, a splenetic Fox News broadcast and an impromptu book-reading at a Barnes & Noble book shop in New York (also attended by the police) must have something going for it. And so it is with The Coming Insurrection, the kind of political pamphlet last fashionable in the 17th century (and perhaps for a period in the 1960s and ‘70s).

—AdbustersI am not calling for a ban on this book. It’s important that you read this book. […] And let me tell you something: Don’t dismiss these people. Don’t dismiss them.
—Fox NewsThis is quite possibly the most evil thing I’ve ever read.
—Fox News…without a doubt the most thought-provoking radical text to be published in the past ten years. It deserves to be read and discussed.
