Democracy Is In Trouble. You Can Help Save It. Here’s How.
In this funny and accessible guide to political activism, Kelly A. Clancy tackles the most vexing question of our time: what kind of world do we want to live in, and how can we make it happen? Based on hundreds of interviews with activists and organizers, as well as Kelly’s personal experience teaching political science and raising politically savvy kids, this book provides insights into what makes change happen, here and around the world.
Part memoir and part handbook, Democracy: A Love Letter is written for busy people with complicated lives. It will inspire you to change your corner of the world—and then give you the tools you need to do it.
What people are saying:
"With wisdom, warmth and humor, Clancy has put forth a practical guide for those looking to make meaningful change in their communities. Infused with the collective knowledge of activists from across the country, Democracy: A Love Letter offers a much needed antidote to our era of political cynicism." -- Marin Cogin, Senior correspondent, VOX.
"In these times when we feel so much has been lost, it is important to remember that we actually know how to win. When we organize and engage people inclusively and holistically, the arc of justice prevails. Democracy: A Love Letter is a succinct, practical, and empowering guide to applying proven organizing frameworks to (little-d) democracy itself." --Innosanto Nagara, bestselling author of A is for Activist, Oh, the Things We're For! and other books for children of the 99%
"Saving democracy should not be some lofty, abstract idea that only matters to historians and political scientists. Saving democracy is the only way regular people like you and me can make sure our government works for us and responds to our daily needs. Deeply informed by conversation and collaboration with experts from across the county, Clancy entertains along the way as she shows us, invaluably, why we should care, what we can do about it, and most importantly, why the right time is always now." --Justin Brannan, New York City Councilman
"In this book, Clancy outlines an ambitious vision for an inclusive democracy and gives practical advice on how to get there. Democracy: A Love Letter is a must-read for progressive activists, scholars of social change, and anyone who is concerned about the state of democracy today." --Brooke Foucault Welles, Professor, Northeastern University and co-author of HashtagActivism: Networks of Race and Gender Justice
"Envisioning a culture of continuous protest, where resistance isn't just occasional but something we incorporate into our daily lives, Clancy asks us to reimagine the democracy we want to live in — then organize and fight to make it a reality. This timely and conversational how-to guide for current (and would be!) activists conveys a sense of optimism about what ordinary people can accomplish when they make collective demands from the powers that be." -- Michael Levitin, Author of Generation Occupy: Reawakening American Democracy
"In Democracy: A Love Letter, Kelly Clancy, PhD, takes readers on an inspiring journey through the resilient spirit of democracy. As a recently naturalized U.S. citizen, an activist and a recently registered voter, this book provided me with a roadmap for better mobilizing and organizing. It is an essential companion for anyone dedicated to making a meaningful impact in their communities. Clancy's passionate call to action will inspire you, as it did me, to embrace your role in shaping a more just and inclusive world. A compelling read for activists, dreamers, and all who believe in the power of democracy." --Abdi Iftin, Author of Call Me American

Diritto di recesso
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
