Roger Hallam has answers. In \u003cem\u003eCommon Sense for the 21st Century\u003c\/em\u003e, Roger Hallam, cofounder of Extinction Rebellion, outlines how movements around the world need to come together \u003cem\u003enow\u003c\/em\u003e to start doing what works: engaging in mass civil disobedience to make real change happen. The book gives people the tools to understand not only why mass disruption, mass arrests, and mass sacrifice are necessary but also details how to carry out acts of civil disobedience effectively, respectfully and nonviolently. It bypasses contemporary political theory, and instead is inspired by Thomas Paine, the pragmatic 18th-century revolutionary whose pamphlet \u003cem\u003eCommon Sense \u003c\/em\u003esparked the American Revolution. \u003cem\u003eCommon Sense for the 21st Century \u003c\/em\u003eurges us to confront the truth about climate change and argues forcefully that only a revolution of society and the state, similar to the turn that Paine urged the Americans to take into the political unknown, can save us now.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 112\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 8.3 x 5.3 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 19, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42155762876551,"sku":"9781645020004","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/a7b3ffb6e8409f1fb49150e3482a7866.webp?v=1733238584","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/common-sense-for-the-21st-century-only-nonviolent-rebellion-can-now-stop-climate-breakdown-and-social-collapse-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
