Presentation
This seminar will analyze contemporary strike experiences in order to think about them from their expansions, beyond the territory of wage labor in a feminist and anti-colonial perspective.
We will take as working cases the feminist strikes in Argentina, Spain and Italy (2017-2024) ; the indigenous-popular-feminist strikes in Ecuador (2019 and 2022) ; the national strike-”estallido”/uprising in Colombia (2019-2020-2021) and the feminist strike (2018-2020) and ”estallido”/uprising in Chile (2019).
Each unfolds a sequence and, at the same time, a discontinuity of political and organizational events that can be thought of in relation to a dynamic that is both processual and disruptive.
We will combine each of these cases of analysis, their conceptualizations and problematics from several questions : what is it for ? ; how is the strike organized ? ; who are the subjects and the demands in each case ? ; what relation can be established with the political processes in each country and at the transnational level ? ; can cycles be established ? ; which are the territories of the revolt ? ; what are the temporalities of the strike ?
We will discuss both the epistemologies of strikes and the question of their generality, efficacy and character in terms of economic, political and subjective ambitions.
The seminar is open to undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students and to free auditors.
