"The Oranges of Revolution" by Clare Saponia (English Edition)
From the Arab Spring and the UK riots of 2011 to civil wars in Syria, Iraq, South Sudan, Libya, and the Ukraine, our rulers pick and choose their favorites, color-coding the good revolutions and demonizing those they cannot control as `terrorists'. Clare Saponia rigorously explores these confused and violent struggles, as if dissecting a blood orange - skin, pith, flesh, pips, and juice - from cause to consequence, aspiration to betrayal, and defeat to renewed hopes for social justice. Here is a book about democracy and power, despotism and resistance, imperialism and revolution.
