"Waking the giant: examining the legacy of a global uprisibg"

"Surely the genius of Occupy, Spain´s 15-M and other movements throughout 2011-12 was that they bypassed politics to speak directly to the masses. The global uprising has certainly succeeded in shining a light on the shady relationship between money and politics, the huge failings of representative democracy, the problems caused by global wealth inequality, and the pure greed of the global corporations and financial institutions that pull the strings of our puppet governments. And now, thanks to those who (literally) shouted it from the rooftops, we all know the truth."
