{"product_id":"global-police-state-1","title":"Global Police State","description":"\u003cp\u003eAs the world becomes ever more unequal, people become ever more 'disposable'. Today, governments systematically exclude sections of their populations from society through heavy-handed policing. But it doesn't always go to plan. William I. Robinson exposes the nature and dynamics of this out-of-control system, arguing for the urgency of creating a movement capable of overthrowing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe global police state uses a variety of ingenious methods of control, including mass incarceration, police violence, US-led wars, the persecution of immigrants and refugees, and the repression of environmental activists. Movements have emerged to combat the increasing militarization, surveillance and social cleansing; however many of them appeal to a moral sense of social justice rather than addressing its root - global capitalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUsing shocking data which reveals how far capitalism has become a system of repression, Robinson argues that the emerging megacities of the world are becoming the battlegrounds where the excluded and the oppressed face off against the global police state.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pluto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56408817959256,"sku":"9780745341637","price":97.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780745341637.jpg?v=1780429524","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/global-police-state-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
