Marshall Ganz's new book, People, Power, Change: Organizing for Democratic Renewal, will be published on August 1, 2024.

Marshall Ganz’s new book, People, Power, Change: Organizing for Democratic Renewal, is a celebration of his 60 years of organizing, teaching, and learning alongside many organizers including those of us in the Leading Change Network.
People, Power, Change: Organizing for Democratic Renewal is for anyone who wants to work with others to create real, democratic and lasting change, at a moment when our democratic abilities seem to have eroded, and political, economic, and technological forces have weakened the capacity for collective action. The book focuses on the creation and substance of relationships, the fuel of values and narrative, the resources and power of strategy, the accountability of action, and the necessity of structure. Instead of offering students, educators, and organizers a blueprint of what to do, it offers a road map for learning how to do it, how to share it with others, and how to bring purpose, skill, and craft to it. 
The book will be published by Oxford University Press on August 1, 2024.
It is available for pre-order on Amazon or Bookshop.org and can also be requested from your local independent bookseller.
