From 2010 to 2020, more people globally participated in protests than at any other point in human history. Why did so few get what they wanted? From the so-called Arab Spring to Gezi Park in Turkey, from Ukraine’s Euromaidan to student rebellions in Chile and Hong Kong, the 2010s was undoubtedly the era of mass protest. Over four years, Vincent Bevins travelled the world to interview 100s of people who took part, asking activists how the failure to leverage these movements into lasting change often allowed the far right to hijack power, and why protestors instead saw their countries change in all the wrong ways. ‘If We Burn’ is a meticulous investigation into the era of global protests that demonstrates how participants interacted with and educated one another internationally, ultimately tying their fates together.
