Spatial Resistance - Literary and Digital Challenges to Neoliberalism

This book uses literary analysis and digital humanities to show how social justice can be enacted in everyday actions through changing the way we think about lived spaces. As corporate and state powers increase, it is necessary to examine ways to democratize space based on the shared values of equality, liberty, and solidarity.
