'Thomas and van de Fliert compose a compelling and insighful interrogation of Communication for Social Change, raising much needed and rarely seen critical dialogue on theory and practice. Positioning communication within institutional contexts and political and economic conditions, their analyses foreground power, not just in terms of deconstruction but also as a way to consider conditions through which communication might succeed. They raise pressing questions about the future of the field and the promotion of communication rights, offering engaging directions for future research.' - Karin Gwinn Wilkins, University of Texas at Austin, USA
