John Hunt Publishing - Zero Books - announces the new title

Politactics
Political Conversations from Everyday Analysis

EDA Collective

Technology, politics and entertainment have merged to the point of confusion. Politactics, the third book from the Everyday Analysis collective, is a set of conversations about how to sift through this organized but disordered mess and create a framework which could enact change against political and corporate hegemony. An internationalist collection of essays, articles, responses and letters, the book argues that we need a ‘politactical’ mindset in order to develop tactical and practical responses to the situations in which we are politically finding ourselves (in every sense of the phrase).

Author Bio
