SOAN Department Colloquium\, Part I
Underground Publishing Networks and Autonomous Politics \;
in Latin America
\;
strong>Presented by \;Magalí Rabasa
Over the past two decades\, Latin America has seen an explosion of autonomous social movements\, as people across the continen t express their refusal to be absorbed by the logic and order of neoliber alism. The autonomous movements of the twenty-first century are marked by an unprecedented degree of interconnection\, through their use of digita l tools and their insistence on the importance of producing knowledge abo ut their practices through strategies of self-representation and grassroo ts theorization. Alongside the new movements there has been a massive gro wth in underground book publishing projects that work to help the movemen ts circulate their ideas and create a dialogue with their counterparts in other places. The result of several years of participatory ethnographic research with activists\, writers\, and presses in Mexico\, Bolivia\, Arg entina\, and Chile\, the forthcoming monograph \;The Book in Move ment: Autonomous Politics and the Lettered City Underground \;(U niv of Pittsburgh Press\, 2019) is an ethnography of the print book in th ese networks of radical social movements. In it\, Rabasa argues that the books the movements and the underground presses create are "organic books \," because their materiality and their processes of production and circu lation are indeed organic to the political ideas and practices that the t exts themselves describe. This particular chapter explores the ways that the "organic books" produced by and for social movements travel widely th rough decentralized networks of presses and alternative approaches to int ellectual property.
