As the goals and aspirations of protesters across the world are becoming more multifaceted and less programmatic it becomes increasingly hard to say what 'the protester' wants and where 'the revolution' will take us. This book makes no attempts to give a clear cut answer that question, but it sheds light on the different forms and shapes that revolts and revolutions may take in the 21st century.
