¡Zapatistas! Making Another World Possible by John Ross

$15.95

This volume continues the journey begun by John Ross in The War Against Oblivion: Zapatista Chronicles 1994 - 2000 with a front line account of the past six years of the insurgency, and a brilliant eyewitness portrayal of the battle of the Mexican left to thwart the stealing of the fraud-marred 2006 presidential election.

Ross intercuts the Zapatista struggle with the larger events of the period: the bloody crusades of George W Bush, the global grassroots fight back to the corporate domination of the planet, and the exhaustion of the neo-liberal machine in Latin America and the swing to the left. Although the Zapatistas live far away from these events, they heard the salvos and saw the pain of this "Fourth World War" as they term it, and have woven them into their own unique and resilient resistance.
