description: Is protest worth the effort? This new issue of the Idler looks at the history and the present of protest movements and asks whether there is any point in taking to the streets, or whether a more effective form of revolt might be to make a revolution in your everyday life. Articles Tom Hodgkinson argues that anti-war marches are futile and that much more can be achieved by lying in bed doing nothing, Jay Griffiths meets the Papuan tribe who protested against their oppressors by eating them, and many other examples are examined.
