Discover the compelling insights of 'Protest Inc.', a groundbreaking book that tackles the evolution of global activism since the 2008 financial crisis. This brand new edition explores how mass protests have surged worldwide, with students, workers, and environmentalists uniting in the fight against entrenched capitalist structures. As grassroots activists rally for change, the narrative shifts, revealing how activism increasingly mirrors business tactics. 'Protest Inc.' delves into the uneasy partnerships between NGOs and major corporations such as ExxonMobil, Walmart, and Nike, raising critical questions about the integrity of modern activism. Is the old paradigm of protest being replaced by a market-driven model?

Rich with 200 pages of essential commentary, this 2014 publication from John Wiley & Sons (UK) presents an urgent call to action as it exposes the corporatization of activism. It underscores the growing influence of consumerism and the dangers posed to genuine transformative change. Can true activism survive in this new landscape? Join the conversation as this insightful book challenges the necessity of authentic dissent in fostering real societal reform.

Description:
Mass protests have raged since the global financial crisis of 2008.
Across the world students and workers and environmentalists are
taking to the streets. Discontent is seething even in the
wealthiest countries, as the world saw with Occupy Wall Street in
2011.

Protest Inc. tells a disturbingly different story of global
activism. As millions of grassroots activists rally against
capitalism, activism more broadly is increasingly mirroring
business management and echoing calls for market-based solutions.
The past decade has seen nongovernmental organizations partner with
oil companies like ExxonMobil, discount retailers like Walmart,
fast-food chains like McDonald?s, and brand manufacturers
like Nike and Coca-Cola. NGOs are courting billionaire
philanthropists, branding causes, and turning to consumers as
wellsprings of reform.

Are ?career? activists selling out to pay staff and
fund programs? Partly. But far more is going on. Political and
socioeconomic changes are enhancing the power of business to
corporatize activism, including a worldwide crackdown on dissent, a
strengthening of consumerism, a privatization of daily life, and a
shifting of activism into business-style institutions. Grassroots
activists are fighting back. Yet, even as protestors march and
occupy cities, more and more activist organizations are
collaborating with business and advocating for corporate-friendly
?solutions.? This landmark book sounds the alarm about
the dangers of this corporatizing trend for the future of
transformative change in world politics.

Worth it albeit online claim process need work
I submitted the claim online twice and each time the claim was denied due to missing documents, which I included. Calling the customer service center was helpful. Shout out to UPS, who picked up the returned item and provided a receipt. Still recommend getting protection, might be an exercise of patience but still worth it.

Absolutely buy this insurance for any product you care about!
I usually don't buy the protection plan for appliances, but the combination of previous experiences with milk frothers that inexplicably and quickly failed taught me to do so this time with my Maestri House milk frother, bought for $70. I'm so glad I did! It shorted out at 22 months, and the company refused to help. I filed my claim with Asurion, got a return label immediately, sent it back that day, and was notified within a couple of days that the total cost of the frother was now ready and waiting for me in my Amazon account. It was so easy, so seamless, and so quick! I researched new (non-Maestri House) frothers, and bought a highly-praised one for the same price--with another 3-year plan from Asurion. So well worth a few more dollars to protect an appliance that I can't start my day without!
