Neighborhoods organized themselves into hundreds of popular assemblies across the country, the unemployed workers movement acquired a new visibility, workers took over factories and businesses. Deeply involved in these movements were the activists who made up Colectivo Situaciones.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith the embers of that December's aftermath still burning, Colectivo Situaciones militantly researched and wrote \u003cem\u003e19 and 20\u003c\/em\u003e. Locating themselves among the \"horizontally organized subjectivities that insisted on not being represented by politicians but maintaining and developing their own powers of political expression\" that Micheal Hardt notes in his introduction, Colectivo Situaciones gathers, interrogates, and offers forth the words of unemployed workers, factory occupiers, insurgent intellectuals, and children of the disappeared. From their investigations is revealed the birth of a new social protagonism and the de-institutional power (\u003cem\u003epotencia\u003c\/em\u003e) they wield.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e19 and 20\u003c\/em\u003e has been praised as this generation's \u003cem\u003e18th Brumaire\u003c\/em\u003e and as Marx's analysis of that struggle helped set the stage for, twenty years later, the Paris Commune we find ourselves here. Revisiting and exploring the forms of counterpower that emerged from the shadow of neoliberal rule we find the book's \u003cem\u003epotencia\u003c\/em\u003e has only grown. In the intervening years the analysis of Colectivo Situaciones has been passed from hand to hand and multitudes of citizens from different countries have learned their own ways to chant \u003cem\u003e Qué se vayan todos!\u003c\/em\u003e, from Iceland to Tunisia, from Spain to Greece, from Tahrir Square to Black Lives Matter. Colectivo Situaciones' practice of militant research--of engaging with movements' own thought processes--resonates with everyone seeking to think current events and movements, and through that to gather the foundation of a commune for the 21st century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 9 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 23, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51767947657504,"sku":"9781942173489","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/1ebdaed296111f3a821b10a448352d77.webp?v=1780321237","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/19-and-20-notes-for-a-new-insurrection-updated-20th-anniversary-edition-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
