alternative bookstores  

Definición

  • Serving communities that are not always represented by the larger book industry, alternative bookstores have been key to disseminating information not found in more traditional media outlets. Though specialty bookstores have always existed to cater to specific communities of readers, and political publishers of every stripe have long had their own bookselling outlets, it was the postwar burgeoning of political activity combined with the mores of the modern book industry that provided an opening for the massive proliferation of “alternative” bookshops around the world.
