Regenerations / Platforms
and utopian spaces
San Pedro Museo de Arte in Puebla, Mexico
With John Holloway ,
Irish lawyer, Marxist economist and philosopher whose work
is closely associated with the Zapatista movement in Mexico,
his home since 1991.
His 2002 book, Change the World Without Taking Power ,
has been the subject of much controversy in Marxist circles, and contends
that the possibility of revolution resides not in the seizure of state
apparatuses, but in day-to-day acts of abject refusal of capitalist society.
He is considered by supporters and critics to be broadly Autonomist in
outlook, and his work is often compared and contrasted with that of figures
such as Antonio Negri. (wikipedia source)
Evelyne Jouanno ,
