They are the centers of capital accumulation as well as of revolutionary politics, where deeper currents of social and political change rise to the surface.

Drawing on the Paris Commune as well as Occupy Wall Street and the London Riots, Harvey asks how cities might be reorganized in more socially just and ecologically sane ways—and how they can become the focus for anti-capitalist resistance.\"Whose streets?
