Fakta

• Offers an insider view of the rebellions of the last decade from a participant-philosopher.

• This book strikes at the nervous system of our experiences of capitalist society, widely indicted by those in Occupy Wall Street, and is destined to be a cult favorite for a generation coming to consciousness in the wake of protest movements against inequality and alienation following the 2008 Great Recession.

• An inventive and creative reinterpretation of revolutionary politics today.

• There is an increasing interest in radical philosophy that can overcome the impasse of politics today. While there is a long list of recent publications that address one or more aspects, aiming to systematically analyze them, no other publication seeks to directly address the zeitgeist animating our uncertain times.

• There Is No Unhappy Revolution departs from the conventions of both academic philosophy and activist reportage to produce a text that theorizes the spirit and sentiment of those unmoored by the crises of our times.

• A book that offers in prose bordering on poetry—line-after-line of memorable critique—prophesy for an age of rebellion.

• Acclaimed author Marcello Tarì writes in the same spirited style as genre-defining collective and anonymous publications such as The Coming Insurrection highlighted by Glenn Beck as “quite possibly the most evil thing I’ve ever read” by “actual communists” writing an “evil anarchist manual.”

• There is an epidemic of mental illness in the United States, embodied by the well-known rise in what researchers call “deaths of despair.” Increasing numbers of people are anxious, depressed—unhappy. Asking “Can we afford our unhappiness any longer?” Tarì offers a way out rooted in political friendship and revolutionary struggle, which together hold out the promise of a “profane happiness.”
