This book is both a road map and a reckoning. Drawing on his own experience of on-the-ground organizing, Samuel Stein presents practical policies for enacting a right to shelter, a right to a home, and a right to the city itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith raw honesty, he then explores why these visions founder on the rocks of political reality. He reveals the forces blocking our path—from the power of real estate capital to the inadequacy of our institutions—and captures the complex feelings of a left that has lost faith in the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten in the heady weeks surrounding Zohran Mamdani’s historic election for New York City mayor, Stein frames the book around the stirring possibilities and structural constraints of a socialist administration in the financial center of a sputtering empire. He opens a space for action in the absence of hope. This is an examination of life and politics at the intersection of optimism and pessimism, nihilism and naivety, faith and doubt—an essential book for activists, planners, and anyone who refuses to accept the housing crisis as inevitable or immutable.","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47874513862911,"sku":"9781836743262","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781836743262_s600x595.jpg?v=1781542476","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781836743262","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
