The Program in Latin American, Caribbean, and Latinx Studies is pleased to welcome journalist Ra\u00fal Zibechi<\/strong> for a conversation about his forthcoming book,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Constructing Worlds Otherwise: Societies in Movement and Anticolonial Paths in Latin America<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

(AK Press, 2024). Translated by George Ygarza Quispe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new collection from one of Latin America’s most dynamic radical thinkers\u2014in the tradition of Frantz Fanon and Eduardo Galeano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through a survey of the most marginalized voices across Latin America\u2014feminists, the Indigenous, people of African descent, and inhabitants of urban favelas and rural towns\u2014Zibechi 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 \u00d6calan, ideological theorist of Kurdish resistance, for a rich and dynamic survey of movements of nonstate power. Constructing Worlds Otherwise<\/em> comes at a time when the global left\u2014struggling to expand its vision in an era of climate chaos and rising authoritarianism\u2014finds itself at an impasse, desperate to animate and renew its critical imaginary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
