Networks of Outrage and Hope by Manuel Castells
Networks of Outrage and Hope is an exploration of the new forms of social movements and protests that are erupting in the world today, from the Arab uprisings to the indignadas movement in Spain, from the Occupy Wall Street movement to the social protests in Turkey, Brazil and elsewhere.�A thousand words are too few to cover the riches of this incredibly timely account of contemporary movements�
American Journal of Sociology
�A must for those who are interested in how social movements communicate in the network society to realize changes of value in society.�
International Journal of Public Opinion Research
"This is a well-argued and lively book that will be of great interest to anyone looking for an introduction to either post-2010 social movements or Castells' work."
