Detailed accounts of major ant-road campaigns, both in the UK and internationally, are included, describing confrontations at Twyford, Newbury, Glasgow and the Autobahn in Germany, as well as information on the globalisation of Earth First!, with details of protests in Australia, Ireland, Germany, France, Holland, Eastern Europe and North America.

Earth Fist! and the Anti-Roads Movement traces the origins of the movement and the history of anti-roads activism in Britain since the 1880s.

Showing how green social and political theory can be linked to practical struggles for environmental and social change, Derek Wall investigates key topics of political and sociological interest.
