How to Blow Up a Pipeline

by Andreas Malm

4.00 · 1 rating

Description

This provocative work challenges the climate movement’s reliance on peaceful protest and incremental reform, asking whether escalating ecological catastrophe demands more confrontational tactics. It examines the history of resistance movements, the political economy of fossil fuels, and the strategic arguments for targeting the infrastructure that sustains carbon-intensive systems. Combining urgent analysis with a direct, polemical style, the book invites readers to reconsider the boundaries between property destruction, political violence, and effective climate action. It is a controversial intervention in debates about activism, justice, and the future of the planet.
