Sowohl mit Beifallsstürmen bedacht als auch ausgebuht ist es John Holloway mit seiner Streitschrift gelungen, eine breite und lang andauernde, internationale Debatte anzustoßen, die an Lebhaftigkeit ihresgleichen sucht. John Holloway spannt in seinem Buch ein widersprüchliches Feld von Macht und Gegenmacht, von Herrschaft und Widerstand auf. Dabei gehört er dank seiner profunden Kenntnis Adornos, Horkheimers, Blochs und all der anderen bekannten Größen der kritischen Theorie zu den wenigen, die schwierige Sachverhalte anschaulich und einfach, fast spielerisch erklären, ohne dabei simplen Erklärungen aufzusitzen.

"When we write or when we read, it is easy to forget that the beginning is not the word, but the scream."

Work Description

Change the World Without Taking Power: The Meaning of Revolution Today is a book by John Holloway that looks at the understanding of power as the central focal point of how to effect meaningful change. Holloway uses two definitions of power, 'power-over' and 'power-to' in order to understand the difference between power from authority, power over someone else, and the power to do something, the capacity for action. Holloway argues we should never simply assume the legitimacy of anything with 'power-over' someone else and goes as far as saying this is true for the state - we should not 'fetishise' the state to the extent of simply assuming its role, responsibilities, and authority.
