Synopsis
The End of the World as We Know It? explores the origins and effects of the capitalist crisis that began in 2008. It moves on to examine the responses of both the dispossessed and the ruling classes to the catastrophe, giving special attention to student mobilizations around the world. Weaving together a global network of stories and analyses, editor Deric Shannon creates an outline of what real and effective opposition to the forces that are destroying our lives and our planet might look like. From solidarity networks to revolutionary unionism, student strikes, and ever-new forms of state and corporate control, The End of the World as We Know It? is a guide to the future of anticapitalist struggle.

Review
Highly recommended reading for the contemporary dissident. --Ruth Kinna, author of A Beginner's Guide to Anarchism
There is nothing more important for anticapitalists than providing sharp analysis and relevant answers to the problems of our time, rather than merely propagating noble ideals. Here is a book that lives up to the task. --Gabriel Kuhn, editor of All Power to the Councils! A Documentary History of the German Revolution of 1918-1919
The contributions in The End of the World As We Know It? provide us with important lessons concerning the economic crisis and the attempts of working people to create a world worth living in. --Andrej Grubacic, author of Don't Mourn, Balkanize! Essays After Yugoslavia
