19 and 20
Notes for a New Insurrection (Updated 20th Anniversary Edition)
• New and updated edition that will make the work broadly available in English for the first time
• The interest in Colectivo Situaciones thought an analysis has only grown since it’s publication
• Resonance with other Common Notion titles and authors especially Marcello Tarì and Grupo del Arte
• The recent failed coup to preserve a presidency provides an interesting mirror to They All Must Go which drove out several.
• New contributors will be writing about the relevance of Colectivo Situaciones to mark the books publication
• Colectivo Situaciones member Veronica Gago is a leader of Argentinan feminist movements and has recently published in the US
• The popular assemblies and the worker occupied factories captured the imagination of activists for a decade--those ideas are ripe for a resurgence and many activist engaged the first time are now college professors
• This book can be sold equally well (& equally honestly) as a history of the uprising and a book of philosophy and theory
• The idea of militant research is one that is circulating broadly and, along with with Fred Moten’s fugitive planning, informing the work of many scholar-activists.
• Anticipated excerpt in NACLA: Report on the Americas
• Colectivo Situaciones has also received press in art magazines and we will follow up those angles
• In addition to the new material this will be the first version actively marketed to a US readership.
• Much of the writing on this uprising is written by hard political scientists and non-native observers. This book is written from the heart of multiple communities
• Published for the 20th anniversary of the uprising
