The Next Revolution: Popular Assemblies and the Promise of Direct Democracy by Murray Bookchin

4.0

I had already read most of these essays in other forms, but the introduction by U.K. Le Guin made me decide to grab this copy as well.

In my opinion, a lot of the essays in this are the less compelling, "grumpy" Bookchin that I don't love as much as the old starry-eyed utopian version. It's a great primer though, and I might recommend it to people who need a more stern criticism of the purist ideologies.
