In his groundbreaking and thought-provoking book, Gwilym David Blunt makes a compelling argument that the only ones who have the power to end this injustice are its victims themselves. He asserts that the global poor have the right to resist the very causes that perpetuate their poverty, and that resistance is an essential tool in their fight for justice. Blunt delves into the complex dynamics of resistance, exploring how it is used to reframe urgent political questions such as the legitimacy of illegal immigration as a form of resistance, the potential of transnational social movements like the indigenous rights movement to provide the foundations for civil resistance to global poverty, and the justifications for armed struggle in the face of peaceful resistance's failure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough a rich blend of historical examples and engaging with fields such as philosophy, international law, history, and international political studies, Blunt addresses real-world issues that impact millions of lives. From terrorism to activism, he sheds light on the complexities and challenges of addressing global injustice. This volume is of utmost importance for anyone who is passionate about applied philosophy and the fight against global injustice. It provides valuable insights and perspectives that can inspire and empower individuals and communities to take action and work towards a more equitable and just world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, Gwilym David Blunt's book is a powerful and essential contribution to the ongoing conversation about poverty, resistance, and global justice. It challenges us to think critically and explore new avenues for addressing this pressing issue. By empowering the global poor and advocating for their rights, we can create a world where poverty is eradicated and every person has the opportunity to thrive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 450g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 153 x 228 x 20 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781108703321                            \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: New ed                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gwilym DavidBlunt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095018205434,"sku":"9781108703321","price":30.46,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/f45fd8281c3a35ae27bf89f160298448.jpg?v=1637213381","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/global-poverty-injustice-and-resistance","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
