Constructive resistance in Europe: Autonomy practices and solidarity trade.

This book explores how European social movements have actively contested the contention that there is no alternative to capitalism by constructing alternative trading practices in solidarity with marginalized peoples in the global South. The research uses the example of the European Zapatista solidarity network (Redprozapa) to examine the nature of organizations involved in radical political practices. The organization Ya Basta-Milano, as a member of the Redprozapa, is focused on to examine in detail the operation of, and challenges faced by, a political association that engages in solidarity trade as a form of constructive resistance.
