Description



Book Synopsis



What if doubt, hesitation and ambivalence weren't barriers to activism but powerful tools for change?

Challenging the idea that activism is fuelled only by anger or hope, this bold collection explores how activists across anti-racism, climate justice and mental health navigate uncertainty to sustain their work. Blending scholarship with on-the-ground perspectives, this book highlights ambivalence not as a weakness but as a dynamic force.

This is essential reading for anyone engaged in activism or emotional research, redefining what it means to feel and act for justice in a complex world.



Review Quotes




'Ambivalence is pervasive in activism but has far too long been neglected by scholars. This important and original collection explores the potential of ambivalence in a wide range of contexts' Silke Roth, University of Southampton
