Description
Nonfiction. Media Studies. Canada Studies. Edited by Andrea Langlois, Ron Sakolsky, and Marian van der Zon. In the first book published on the subject, ISLANDS OF RESISTANCE gives you a view from the crow's nest of the phenomenon of pirate radio in Canada. Here is a collection of seventeen activist manifestos, artistic treatise of intent, historical essays on the development of radio and its regulatory bodies, sociological examination of pirate radio's application in new social movements, and personal anecdotes from behind the eyepatch. Just as the new media ostenibly renders the old obsolete, ISLANDS OF RESISTANCE unveils the existance of a thriving clandestine counterculture. An invaluable addition to an unscrutinized subject in Canadian media studies, ISLANDS OF RESISTANCE appeals to the anarchist, anti-authoritarian impulses in all of us. - from Amzon
