Overview

When we first asked - "" What is your one demand?"" - it sparked a major mindshift. And now, even while the world's mis-Leaders seem hell-bent on collective destruction, the 99%, the global majority, belong to a mighty grassroots insurgency - a third force, borderless, leaderless, beyond Left and Right. In his new book to ignite the left, Kalle Lasn outlines Adbusters' vision for a thinkable future, a blueprint for a revolution against collapse on a whole new front. The business as usual world will soon be gone. From metameme to metameme, he asserts "" revolution is a force that gives life meaning."" This book asks where do you want to go?

Analysis, inspiration and sexy ‘oven-ready campaigns in this latest fantastic offering from our friends at Adbusters. – Dr. Gail Bradbrook Co Founder Extinction Rebellion UK Capitalism has paved the way to the Extinction of civilization. I am reading the Manifesto for World Revolution, because I want to know what is going to happen next. – Franco “Bifo” Berardi A deeply honest up-in-your-face-book about our present extremely dangerous world. Shows a way out of the endgame we as humanity and civilization have created for ourselves. The most motivating, compelling and hopeful book I have read for a long time. Put the Manifesto for World Revolution on the reading list for all high school and university students. The book would blow their minds, open their hearts and give them the guts to act like their lives depended on it. Let me just say it loud and clear: I like everything about the Manifesto for World Revolution. Kalle Lasn and the Adbusters team have written a deeply honest up-in-your-face-book about our present extremely dangerous world. – Uffe Elbæk, Former Minister for Culture of Denmark Whether they're in advertising, journalism, entertainment, consulting, or politics, people are paid to tell us that life will be OK if we keep on working, shopping, saving and believing. But they're wrong: Gaia has finally gatecrashed the party of industrial consumer society. The Manifesto for World Revolution reminds us that the breaking down of dominant systems allows for a rising up of alternative ways to live. – Prof Jem Bendell, author Breaking Together All human beings are animals of one species whose survival and well-being are utterly dependent on clean air, pure water, rich soil, photosynthesis and biodiversity, which are “sacred gifts” from Nature. The systems we’ve created to guide and constrain human activity and behaviour, namely law, the economy and politics, pay scant heed to these life-conferring elements and so drive their destruction in the name of human progress.  For decades, leading scientists have been warning that we are on an ecologically destructive path while environmentalists describe a sustainable world but are marginalised as “special interest” groups whose concerns are subordinate to corporate and political priorities. We have run out of time for incremental change – a new law to rein in corporations, new taxes, financial incentives, new parks, aspirational goals – to get us off the destructive road we are on. We need revolutionary shifts in our priorities and activities immediately.  Kalle Lasn provides a blueprint to make that shift. –David Suzuki Political dynamite. A wake-up call for humanity that can help our civilization bend rather than break in the face of the crises of our times. –Roman Krznaric, soical philosopher and author of The Good Ancestor and History for Tomorrow Kalle Lasn is a fearless writer. He has been flying the flag of just and sustainable world order for decades. This book is thought provoking, radical and visionary. Read it. You will be inspired and challenged!  – Satish Kumar, Founder of Schumacher College
