Honorable Mention: The Paul Sweezy Sociology Book Award 2026'In this path-breaking book, Schroering bridges resistance to different forms of water grabbing - privatization, large dams, and bottled water - by focusing on translocal organizing. She decolonizes our understanding of social movement struggles, showing how those in the Global North learn from the Global South. A must-read for water activists, academics, and anyone interested in alternative futures beyond capitalism!'Andreas Bieler, Professor of Political Economy, University of Nottingham
