March 12 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Ian Angus is a socialist and ecosocialist activist in Canada. He is the editor of the ecosocialist journal Climate and Capitalism. He will present his latest book, The War Against the Commons.

Ian Angus est un militant socialiste et écosocialiste canadien. Il est rédacteur en chef de la revue écosocialiste Climate and Capitalism. Il présentera son dernier ouvrage, The War Against the Commons.
« L’opposition massive à la dépossession n’a jamais cessé. Ce récit dramatique apporte un éclairage nouveau sur une opposition qui allait de la désobéissance civile obstinée à la rébellion ouverte, et comprend des témoignages oculaires de campagnes au cours desquelles des milliers de manifestants ont démoli des clôtures et rétabli l’accès commun aux pâturages et aux forêts. »
La présentation se fera en anglais et en personne.
