Overview
This volume brings Dig Where You Stand, Sven Lindqvist's classic text on history, power and politics, to English-speaking audiences for the first time.
First published in 1978, Dig Where You Stand is a rallying cry for workers to become researchers, to follow the money, take on the role as experts on their job, and "dig" out its hidden histories in order to takeĀ a vital step towards social and economic transformation.
A how-to guide that inspired an entire movement, it makes the case thatĀ everyone ā not just academics ā can learn how to critically and rigorously explore history, especially their own history, and in doing so find a blueprint for how to transform society for the better.
In a world where the balance of power is overwhelmingly stacked against the working-class, Dig Where You Stand's manifesto for the empowerment of workers through self-education, historical research and political solidarityĀ is as important and relevant todayĀ as it was in 1978.
