Cambria Press is pleased to announce that Challenges to Civil Society: Popular Protest & Governance in Jamaica by Hume Johnson is now available.

The book is highly praised by many scholars, including Joseph Soeters (Netherlands Defence Academy/Tilburg University) who states that “this book is lucid and powerful in analyzing the uncivil aspects of civil society, disentangling the dynamics between protesters, the mass media, the general public and government in Jamaica.”

Ebenezer Obadare (University of Kansas) also adds that although “Johnson’s primary focus is Jamaica, the political history of which she expounds with uncommon brio, the utility of her arguments for societies in the throes of social unrest cannot be overemphasized. This is an important book that pushes the frontiers of the debate.”
