Synopsis

What if saving our democracy from collapse means abandoning traditional political parties altogether? What if there’s a proven way to build movements that don’t just fight — but win? From his prison cell, Roger Hallam — co-founder of Extinction Rebellion — distils decades of experience designing world-shaking campaigns into a guide for building political power. With rare clarity and a personal touch, he shows how concepts like negative dialectics and non-linear dynamics can be turned into organising victories for the new British Left. Drawing on struggles from California farm workers to Chilean popular sectors, Hallam reveals why so many movements fail — and what it really takes to win. The result is a revolutionary blueprint: uncompromising, rooted in lived experience, and charged with intellectual depth. A field guide for the 21st century — a call to action and a map for building the movements that can actually change the world.

About Roger Hallam

Roger Hallam
Roger Hallam is the UK’s leading climate campaigner, co-founding Extinction Rebellion, Insulate Britain, and Just Stop Oil. He has advised major climate movements across Europe and spent decades in social justice, leaving LSE to join the peace movement before becoming an organic farmer. After climate-driven floods destroyed his crops, he turned to research at King’s College London, producing award-winning work on mobilisation and civil disobedience. His 2018 book Common Sense for the 21st Century was Tate Modern’s book of the month, and in 2023, New Statesman ranked him the UK’s 34th most influential progressive. In 2024, a judge had him dragged from court for refusing to withhold the truth in a climate trial. He was sentenced to five years in prison—the longest for civil disobedience since WWII. Despite this, he continues his work from prison. Read more at rogerhallam.com.
