About Haymarket Books
Haymarket Books is a radical, independent, nonprofit book publisher based in Chicago.
Our mission is to publish books that contribute to struggles for social and economic
justice, as a vibrant and organic part of social movements and the education and de-
velopment of a critical, engaged, international Left. Since our founding in 2001, weve
published more than five hundred titles. Our authors include Arundhati Roy, Rebec-
ca Solnit, Angela Y. Davis, Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Amy Goodman, Wallace
Shawn, Mike Davis, Winona LaDuke, Dave Zirin, and Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor.
Books can be the sparks for revolution. I am so grateful for all Haymarket Books has
done for the past fifteen years to fuel the subterranean fire of protest. They are my go-to
publisher for radical politics and the ideas we need for our struggles. Tom Morello
Haymarket has always led with the notion that ideas sell books, not gimmicks, empty
platitudes, or mainstream marketing hooks. Bringing grassroots organizing to ground-up
publishing, its inimitable staff carries the passion and creativity required to set its authors
words in motion. In an era of right-wing racism and neoliberal conformity, Haymarket is
a critical platform promoting ideas for mass mobilization and community action.
Remi Kanazi, poet and Haymarket author
Haymarkets books are vital: they provoke the mindset shifts necessary to fuel chal-
lenges to dominant systems. Im so grateful that Haymarket exists, because I think that
without it, a lot of really crucial books just wouldnt be published. In general, publishers
dont like to take risks. Haymarket, on the other hand, realizes that taking risks is at the
core of doing transformative work. Congratulations on your fifteenth anniversary! The
world is a better place with you all in it.
Maya Schenwar, Truthout editor in chief and Haymarket author

No Is Not Enough
Resisting Trumps Shock Politics
and Winning the World We Need
Naomi Klein
A roadmap to resistance in the Trump era from

internationally acclaimed activist and bestselling
author Naomi Klein.
The election of Donald Trump is a dangerous escala-

tion in a world of cascading crises. Trumps visiona
radical deregulation of the US economy in the interest
of corporations, an all-out war on radical Islamic terrorism, and the sweeping aside of cli-
mate science to unleash a domestic fossil fuel frenzywill generate wave after wave of crises
and shocks: to the economy, to national security, and to the environment.
In No Is Not Enough, Naomi Klein explains that Trump, extreme as he is, is not an aberration
but a logical extension of the worst and most dangerous trends of the past half-century.
In exposing the malignant forces behind Trumps rise, she puts forward a bold vision for a
mass movement to counter rising militarism, nationalism, and corporatism in the United
States and around the world.
From the preface:

This is but one attempt to look at how we got to this surreal political moment;
how, in concrete ways, it could get a lot worse; and how, if we keep our heads,
we might just be able to flip the script and arrive at a radically better future.
Naomi Klein is an award-winning journalist, syndicated columnist, and author

of the international bestsellers No Logo, The Shock Doctrine, and most recently
This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate. In 2017 she joined The In-
tercept as a senior correspondent.

Class War, USA
Dispatches from Workers Struggles
in American History
Brandon Weber
An engaging collection of little-known stories of

working people in US history fighting back in the
darkest times.
A rich collection of stories about ordinary people

who resisted oppression and exploitation against all
odds, Brandon Webers short essays capture the lit-
tle-known moments of struggle when workers and veterans built movements of hope and
defiance. Evocative imagery, archival photographs, and descriptive text make labor history
come alive.
From the mines to the factories to the fields, Weber shares the experiences of the real-life
men and women who organized, heroically resisted, and battled the bosses and corrupt
politicians. In the spirit of A Peoples History of the United States, this book conveys engag-
ing and accessible narratives of ordinary people who led labor struggles that have indelibly
shaped American history.
Essays include vivid accounts of workplace resistance like the Ludlow miners strike and or-
ganizing at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, as well as broader pieces on cultural figures like
Woody Guthrie, Black Wall Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and the fight for the eight-hour day.
An invaluable tool for learning the lessons of grassroots struggle, Class War, USA is the per-
fect counternarrative to the myth that change comes only from the top, and will appeal to
students of history and labor activists alike.
Brandon Weber writes for the online news site Upworthy, where he has written
extensively on labor history and current events.

On New Terrain
How Capital Is Reshaping
the Battleground of Class War
Kim Moody
An insightful and timely analysis of how glob-

al economic restructuring will impact workers
struggles in the United States.
Kim Moody is one of the leading intellectu-

als of the labor movement.
Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Race Rebels:
Culture, Politics and the Black Working Class
In his latest book, Kim Moody analyzes how recent changes in capitalism have altered both
the composition of the working class and the economic and political ground of its struggles.
On New Terrain challenges conventional wisdom about a disappearing working class and
the inevitability of a two-party political structure as the only framework for struggle.
Through in-depth study of the economic and political shifts at the top of society, Moody
shows how recent developments in capitalist production impact the working class and its
power to resist the status quo. He argues that this transformed industrial terrain offers new
possibilities for organization in the workplace and opens doors for grassroots, independent
political action strengthened by reemerging labor and social movements.
From the logistics revolution to the unprecedented concentration of business and wealth in
the hands of the one percent, On New Terrain examines the impact of the current economic
terrain on the working class in the United States. Looking beyond the clichs of precarity
and the gig economy, Moody shows that the working class and its own self-activity are es-
sential in the global battle against austerity.
Kim Moody is author of In Solidarity: Essays on Working-Class Organization in

the United States and U.S. Labor in Trouble and Transition.

Why Bad Governments
Happen to Good People
Danny Katch
A sharp-witted indictment of the broken US po-

litical system and a democratic, emancipatory
vision for a socialist alternative.
Praise for Socialism . . . Seriously:

Danny Katch has done the impossible: he
makes socialism sexy. Socialism . . . Seriously is
eye-opening, inspiring, and funny. Warning to
all Democrats, Republicans, and libertarians:
this book might turn you into a closet socialist.
Judah Friedlander
The most hilarious book about socialism since Karl Marx and his brother Har-
po wrote their joke book.
Hari Kondabolu
The election of Donald Trump has sent the United States and the world into uncharted wa-
ters, with a bigoted, petty man-child at the head of the planets most powerful empire. Dan-
ny Katch indicts the hollowness of the US political system that led to Trumps rise and puts
forward a vision for a real alternative: a democracy that works for the people.
Danny Katch is an activist and humorist often accused of not knowing the dif-
ference. He writes a regular column for SocialistWorker.org and his articles
have appeared in Truthout, ZNet, and the New York Daily News. He is the au-
thor of Socialism . . . Seriously: A Brief Guide to Human Liberation and Americas

US Politics in an
Age of Uncertainty
Resisting Trump
Edited by Lance Selfa
Resisting Trump must begin with an honest ac-

counting of how he came to power.
Praise for The Democrats:

Lance Selfas The Democrats reveals the many
ways in which the establishment Democratic
Party has not just dashed progressive hopes
over centuries but served as a distraction from the desperately needed business of
making real change in this country. Writing dismal history like this is dirty work,
but somebodys got to do it, and Selfas straight talk actually lifts ones spirits.
Laura Flanders, host of The Laura Flanders Show
As contributor Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor puts it, Donald Trump has been inaugurated as the
forty-fifth president of the United States. The shock and disbelief must now give way to defi-
ance and organizing. Part of that pivot demands that we understand how we got here in the
first place, but more importantly how we move forward. US Politics in an Age of Uncertainty
takes on the measure of the Democratic Party and mainstream liberal organizations, which
have shown themselves to be completely inadequate in addressing the key questions fac-
ing working people today. Sharon Smith, Mike Davis, Charlie Post, Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor,
and other prominent socialist thinkers and activists provide concrete strategies for fighting
against Trump.

The Impossible
Revolution
Making Sense of the Syrian Tragedy
Yassin al-Haj Saleh
Saleh urges us to oppose intervention of imperi-

alist powers in Syria and reject the tyranny of the
Assad regime.
Since the start of the Syrian uprising, Salehs

influence and his role as an incisive critic of
extremism, dictatorship, and the effects of mass violence on Syrian society have
offered powerful and compelling responses to the traumas that define the con-
temporary Syrian experience.
Steven Heydemann, author of Authoritarianism in Syria:
Institutions and Social Conflict, 19461970
This first book in English by Yassin Al-Haj Saleh, the intellectual voice of the Syrian Rev-
olution, describes with precision and fervor the events that led to the Syrian uprising of
2011the metamorphosis of the popular revolution into a regional war and the three mon-
sters Saleh sees treading on Syrias corpse: the Assad regime and its allies, ISIS and other
jihadists, and the West. Where conventional wisdom has it that Assads army is now battling
religious fanatics for control of the country, Saleh argues that the emancipatory, democratic
mass movement that ignited the revolution still exists, though it is beset on all sides.
Saleh offers incisive critiques of the impact of the revolution and war on Syrian governance,
identity, and society to produce a powerful and compelling response to the traumas that
define the contemporary Syrian experience. All those concerned with the conflict should
take note.
Yassin al-Haj Saleh is widely regarded as Syrias foremost thinker and the intel-
lectual authority of the Syrian uprising. Born in Raqqa, he spent sixteen years as
a political prisoner in Syria (19801996) and has been living in exile in Turkey
since 2013. He is the author of six books.

and the New Scramble for Africa
Lee Wengraf
A piercing historical explanation of poverty and inequality in

African societies today and the social impact of resource-driven
growth.
Extracting Profit explains why Africa, in the first decade and a half
of the twenty-first century, has undergone an economic boom. This
period of Africa rising has not led to the creation of jobs but has instead fueled the growth of the
extraction of natural resources and an increasingly wealthy African ruling class.
Lee Wengraf is a socialist and activist based in New York City. She writes on Africa for
the International Socialist Review and Socialist Worker.

Historical Materialism Book Series
Editorial Board: Sebastian Budgen (Paris), Steve Edwards (London), Marcel van der Linden
(Amsterdam), Peter Thomas (London)
The capitalist crisis of the twenty-first century has been met by a resurgence of interest
in critical Marxist theory. Yet the publishing institutions committed to Marxism have
contracted markedly since the high point of the 1970s. The Historical Materialism Book

Marxist theory. The aim of the series is to publish important theoretical contributions
in the form of original monographs, translated texts, and reprints of classicsas the basis
for vigorous intellectual debate and exchange on the left.

Studies in Critical Social Sciences
Editor: David Fasenfest
Modern capitalism began the twenty-first century seemingly victorious as the dominant
social and economic organizing principle in the world. Rampant deregulation accompa-
nied a wholesale attack on the social, economic, and political gains of the prior century
under the guise of increasing competitiveness and the need to respond to the forces of
globalization.
The peer-reviewed Studies in Critical Social Sciences book series offers insights into
the current reality by exploring the content and consequence of power relationships un-
der capitalism, by considering the spaces of opposition and resistance to these changes,
and by articulating capitalism with other systems of power and dominationfor exam-
ple race, gender, culturethat have been defining our new age.
Studies in Critical Social Sciences includes the subseries Studies in Critical Research
on Religion and Critical Global Studies.
