Writing

Juhasz is the author of three books. She wrote The Bush Agenda: Invading the World One Economy at a Time in 2006. The Georgia Straight of Canada said it was "One of the crispest, most insightful books yet to expose the Bush regime."

Juhasz's The Tyranny of Oil: the World's Most Powerful Industry and What We Must Do To Stop It (HarperCollins 2008) received the 2009 San Francisco Library Laureate Award. USA Today wrote, Juhasz "reminds us that those who don't learn the lessons of history are fated to repeat its mistakes." Kirkus Reviews finds it a "timely, blistering critique... white-hot... Explosive fuel for the raging debate on oil prices."

Her 2011 book, Black Tide: the Devastating Impact of the Gulf Oil Spill examined the human impact of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. It was praised by Ms. magazine, which called it "masterfully reported," and by Mother Jones magazine, which said the writing was "both engaging and informative."

Juhasz is the lead author and editor of The True Cost of Chevron: An Alternative Annual Report, for which she received a 2010 Project Censored Award.

Activism

Juhasz provided testimony at the Iraq Veterans Against the War—Winter Soldier: Iraq & Afghanistan in Silver Spring, Maryland in March 2008; at the Citizens Hearing on the Legality of U.S. Actions in Iraq in support of Lt. Ehren Watada in Tacoma, Washington, in January 2007; and to the New York Session of the World Tribunal on Iraq in May 2004.

On 26 May 2010, Antonia Juhasz was removed from the Chevron Corporation shareholders' meeting in Houston and then arrested outside the meeting venue. According to people at the meeting, this happened after Juhasz blasted Chevron's environmental record and then together with a few other activists, for several minutes chanted "Chevron lies". According to Juhasz, she was charged with criminal trespass and disrupting a meeting, and was incarcerated for a twenty-four-hour period.

Project Censored awarded Juhasz Top 25 in 2005 for "Ambitions of Empire: The Radical Reconstruction of Iraq's Economy". In 2007 Peace Action placed Juhasz on their Women Peacemakers Honor Roll, "For women who have made a unique and lasting contribution to work for peace and justice in the world."Шаблон:Citation needed
