Friends in Common - Radical Friendship and Everyday Solidarities Doreen Carwithen Genevieve Hyacinthe is Assistant ProfessorFriendship is full of revolutionary potential in the face of a profoundly anti social capitalist system. Friends in Common explores friendship as a radical practice, capable of upending hierarchies and producing social change. Friendship can transcend social boundaries and political borders. It is vital in building communities and underpinning solidarity. But its transformative potency ensures that it is heavily policed and restrained by the state.
