Activism in Singapore

Description: Political activisim in Singapore is a crucial aspect of Singapore's nation building. These books remind us why we fight so hard in Singapore - after all, there is no place like home.

In 26 conversations with 26 naysayers, The Naysayer's Book Club is aimed at reflecting the spectrum of naysaying in Singapore's civil society. Each person is interviewed against the backdrop of his or her bookcase, putting front and centre a life of ideas and imagination.

In The Art of Advocacy in Singapore , 37 activists, many of them winners of the Awards, write about their causes and discuss the strategies shaped and lessons learnt as they practise the delicate art of advocacy in Singapore. Reflecting the nature of civil society, there is a diversity of voices. Some give a more personal account, while others describe the institutional experience of advocacy work. Some essays are short and sweet, others long and detailed. They appear ordered alphabetically by the cause.
