A criticism that limits itself to capitalism is too superficial, Öcalan argues, and turns his eyes to the underlying structures of civilization. Rethinking the methods of understanding culture, politics, and society, he provides the tools for what he calls a sociology of freedom. This Is the first book in a new five-volume work called "Manifesto for a Democratic Civilization", to be published by New Compass Press and International Initiative Edition. These reflections represent the essence of his ideas on society, knowledge, and power. Source: OpenLibrary
