In the wake of the global financial crisis, disparate groups of people are coming together to resist corporate globalization and seek a more positive way forward. But in Argentina such radical transformations have been taking place for years, with workers running factories themselves and people taking over land to build homes and schools. Daring and groundbreaking, Everyday Revolutions tells the story of how ordinary people changed their country and inspired others across the world.

Real-Time Diplomacy explores the media's role in the process of political change. As a backdrop to the events of 2011, this book examines how diplomacy has evolved as media have gradually reduced the time available to policy makers. It analyzes the workings of real-time diplomacy and the opportunities for media-centered diplomacy programs that bypass governments and directly engage foreign citizens. The book also discusses the ways that lessons from recent electoral campaigns - such as Barack Obama's use of social media in his 2008 presidential race - are applicable to emerging democracies around the world. Also examined are the root causes of the public anger that led to revolution: the social inequities, out-of-touch autocrats, repressive tactics, and other factors that were the tinder set afire by media's sparks.
