Description: For decades most anti - capitalist and anti - imperialist movements identified radical change with capturing state power. The collapse of statist projects from the 1970s fostered both neo - liberalism and a global crisis of left and working - class politics. But it also opened space for rediscovering democratic society - centered and anti - capitalist modes of bottom - up change operating at a distance from the state. This resurgent alternative has influenced the Zapatistas in Mexico Rojava in Syria Occupy and independent unions and struggles worldwide around austerity land and the city. Its lineages include anarchism syndicalism autonomist Marxism philosophers like Alain Badiou and popular praxis. This pathbreaking volume helps recover this once sidelined politics with a focus on South Africa and Zimbabwe. It includes a dossier of texts from a century of anarchists syndicalists radical unionists and anti - apartheid activists in South Africa. Originating in an African summit of scholars social movements and anti - apartheid veterans this book also features a preface from John Holloway.
