Uprising of Hope: An Ethnography of Zapatismo

Wed Feb 06, 2008 at 07:54:15 AM PDT

This is my take on Duncan Earle and Jeanne Simonelli's (2005) book Uprising of Hope, an ethnography of the Zapatistas in Chiapas, Mexico.  I conclude by suggesting that there are political lessons to be learned from Zapatistas, especially insofar as they go about their everyday lives.
