Publisher Description: In the heat of an economic and political crises, people in Argenita took to the streets on December 19, 2001, shouting, Que se vayan todos These words -- All of them out -- hurled by thousands banging pots and pans, struck at every politician, economist, and journalist. Colectivo Situaciones wrote this book in the heat of that December's aftermath. Ten years have passed, yet the book remains and relevant and as fresh as the day it came out. Multitudes of citizens from different countries have learned their own ways to chant Que se vayan todos ; from Iceland to Tunisia, from Spain to Greece, from Tahrir Square to Zuccotti Park. Colectivo Situaciones' practice resonates with everyone seeking to think current events and movements, and through that to build a new world in the shell of the old. |
