Activism, Inc. by Walter R. Fisher
How the Outsourcing of Grassroots Campaigns Is Strangling Progressive Politics
A sociological analysis of how progressive grassroots politics has been transformed by the professionalization and outsourcing of organizing to paid staff, consultants, and contractor firms, arguing that reliance on donor-driven priorities and managerial techniques boosts short-term efficiency and scale while undermining democratic participation, local leadership, and the capacity for sustained, member-driven movement-building.
