- Summary:
- "Property damage constitutes a commonplace feature of global political protest. How then to evaluate it? Pushing back against the tendency to conflate it with political violence, Scheuerman grapples with the question of when, if ever, politically motivated property harms are justifiable, drawing on a wide range of timely real-world examples"-- Provided by publisher.
