Summary

The conclusion reflects on the author’s motivations for writing a book on resistance and how resistance is becoming an unavoidable part of politics. The panic in late 2018 around migrant caravans in the United States shows how the lines are being drawn about the conflict between the affluent and the impoverished. We are being faced with an inescapable choice as to where our loyalties lie.
