Analyzing the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street, this book delves into their origins in the petty bourgeoisie's experiences during the structural crisis of US capitalism. It contextualizes the Great Recession as a critical moment in the finance-dominated accumulation regime and examines the social classes involved in both movements. Through interviews and discussions with activists, it reconstructs the underlying social dynamics that shaped their responses to the crisis, offering insights into the broader political landscape in the US, including the rise of Donald Trump.
