Wages of Rebellion
Chris Hedges
Chris Hedges argues that the world is in a new revolutionary epic, investigating the social and psychological factors that cause revolution, rebellion, and resistance. Drawing on philosophy, history, and current events like the Arab Spring and the Occupy movement, he asserts that popular uprisings are inevitable globally due to wealth polarization and environmental destruction. Hedges defines resistance as a 'moral imperative' carried out by rebels who possess a 'sublime madness' to defy overwhelming oppressive forces.
