Abstract

[Extract] 2011 was the year of uprisings, protest and a revitalised interest in alternative ways of undertaking politics. Protests began with the Arab spring, swiftly followed by the Spanish summer revolution (Indignants movement) and culminated in the autumn Occupy movement, all linked through spatial squares and streets of Cairo, Madrid and New York.
