Henry Giroux does not write books – he forges weapons out of words.

In this collection of powerful new essays, internationally renowned academic, writer and critic Henry A Giroux argues that culture, far from being marginal, has now become the central battleground in the fight against authoritarianism.
Capitalism, says Giroux, is never merely an economic system. It erases memory. Moulds obedient subjects. And makes cruelty appear normal.
And culture is never simply imposed from above. It is always contested. In the arts, in the classroom or in grassroots movements, it is now the front line in the struggle for democracy. To confront neoliberal fascism, Giroux argues, we need far more than the reform of economics or policy. We need a cultural and pedagogical revolution.
Urgent, uncompromising and inspiring, this is a manifesto for action in the cultural sphere.
