Brown G, Feigenbaum A, Frenzel F, McCurdy P (eds.) (2017) Protest Camps and Social Movements. An International Perspective, Policy Press: Bristol
‘Since
the proliferation of peace camps inspired by Greenham Common in the 1980s, the
occupation of sites of political contestation has become a globally significant
form of protest. This collection offers exciting and perceptive analyses of
long-term site-specific political interventions around the world, and is a
must-read for all those interested in social movements and contemporary politics.’
Sasha Roseneil, University of Essex
Frenzel
F (2016) Slumming it: The Tourist
Valorisation of Urban Poverty, Zed Books: London
‘This provocative and beautifully written study of slum tourism will transform your assumptions about the politics of slumming it.’ Imogen Tyler, author of Revolting Subjects
‘A provoking read, exceptional in its efforts to understand slum tourism as a global industry and a symbolic practice of valorisation.’ Africa at LSE
‘A well-argued case for building political projects out of what we have in common, rather than being immobilised by cultural difference.’ VICE
‘Based
on years of embedded fieldwork, Frenzel’s book cuts through the powerful mythology
surrounding the so-called slums, townships, and favelas as tourist
attractions.’ Bianca
Freire-Medeiros, author of Touring Poverty
Feigenbaum,
A, Frenzel F and McCurdy P (2013) Protest
Camps, Zed Books: London
‘Much has
been written about recent protests as digital networks, but too little about
the physical process of continuously occupying significant space. Feigenbaum,
Frenzel and McCurdy’s wonderful book brings a fresh perspective to our
understanding of contemporary political action, connecting to the history of
occupations from Greenham onwards and offering smart conceptual tools for
analysing both recent and historical events in all their richness, messiness
and hidden order. A fine achievement.’ Nick Couldry, London School of Economics and Political Science
