Great Book

Bogad has managed to rise far above the usual deadening clap trap of academic discourse in writing a book about performative politics that conveys the passion and excitement of protest politics itself. Electoral Guerrilla Thaetre is smart, inspiring and even pretty funny in places. The author's own experience as an activist, performer and scholar really pays off.
