Occupying Here & Now puts Occupy Wall Street in the role of the boy who proclaimed amid a seduced and mesmerized crowd that the Emperor indeed had no clothes on, that, here and now in the U.S., a middle class democracy has become a plutocracy and we remain oblivious to this. The results of this are everywhere, from a loss of civility and trust in American life, on our streets and neighborhoods, in our private “compounds,” in all our “public space” as well as in our politics, to the collapse of an economic and social mobility that had supported a belief in “American Exceptionalism.” This short book positions the on-going OWS movement in the history of class warfare, distinguishing it by what seems to be a discursive-free witnessing, by mostly young grievants, of the indisputable conditions of a here and now that affect 99% of the American population. The OWS’s targeting of “Wall Street” is traced to a Reagan-inspired “trickle down” form of capitalism that has benefited, most realistically speaking, about 20% of the U.S. population
Occupying Here Now edition by Joseph Natoli Einar Nordgaard Politics Social Sciences eBooks
Natoli's Occupying Here & Now is a meaningful work that opens the frightened dark eyes of those in the midst of ongoing war. The value of this text goes far beyond the latest flash of battle, OWS, towards making visible the hidden limits of endless ruins, and destruction.Although, the historical ordinary experience of time is prominent in this work, the real magic and wonder are the gestures towards a vertical timeless axis crossing the horizontal flow of time. What the prophetic 18th century English poet William Blake calls, "A vision of the Eternal Now". Just as really present (now) is the eternal, really here is the infinite!
With certain eyes one can see the light in Natoli's text.
Osip Mandelstam said,
"To wrest the century away from bondage
so as to start the world anew
one must tie together with a flute
the knees of all the knotted days."

Occupying Here Now edition by Joseph Natoli Einar Nordgaard Politics Social Sciences eBooks Reviews
Upon the release of Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil, one reviewer suggested that a warning label should be affixed to the book careful, this might blow up in your hands. Such is the explosive quality of Natoli's most recent work on the so-called "Occupy Movement," an e-book that may well cause devices like the Fire to finally live up to their name. At work in a grey zone between gonzo journalism and a prophetic historical materialism, Natoli's analysis is sure to set the reader ablaze as he burns up the idols of the present crisis.
