Klappentext zu „Non-Governmental Public Action / The Politics of Autonomy in Latin America “
The author contests older concepts of autonomy as either revolutionary or ineffective vis-à-vis the state. Looking at four prominent Latin American movements, she defines autonomy as 'the art of organising hope': a tool for indigenous and non-indigenous movements to prefigure alternative realities at a time when utopia can be no longer objected.

Pressezitat
"The Politics of Autonomy in Latin America offers an invaluable starting point for thinking about these challenges and for confronting the limitations of fatalist critiques or naïve optimism that too often pervade debates on autonomy. More than that, it offers an open blueprint for thinking about and acting upon the idea that, within a concrete reality that continues to be overwritten by the hopelessness of neoliberalism, the seeds of hope still remain." (Adam Fishwick, AntipodeFoundation.org, October, 2016)Kommentar zu "Non-Governmental Public Action / The Politics of Autonomy in Latin America"
