Sinopsis

Through a survey of the most marginalized voices across Latin America-feminists, the Indigenous, people of African descent, and inhabitants of urban favelas and rural towns-Zibechi introduces the Anglo world to a range of critical perspectives and new forms of struggle in Peru, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, and Bolivia. His book contributes to global geographies of autonomous and anti-state thinking, including that of the revolutionaries in Rojava and Abdullah Ocalan, ideological theorist of Kurdish resistance, for a rich and dynamic survey of movements of nonstate power. Constructing Worlds Otherwise comes at a time when the global left-struggling to expand its vision in an era of climate chaos and rising authoritarianism-finds itself at an impasse, desperate to animate and renew its critical imaginary.
