Horizontalism:Voices of Popular Power in Argentina
|
Horizontalism:Voices of Popular Power in Argentina has finally been published in English. (AK Press) The intention of the book, as with the Spanish version, is to be a tool for people involved in social movements and struggles around the world. (for more on the book you can see a recent description and interview at http://www.zmag.org/content/showarticle.cfm?SectionID=42&ItemID=11737 ) I would love to send you as many copies of the book as you feel you can distribute. The way the distribution works with people in movements for the Spanish version, and I imagine a similar form with the English, is that movements and groups take/receive as many books as they feel they can use and distribute. Most of the time the book is given to people and groups, and occasionally it is bartered or donations are received and then those donations go back to the movement distributing the book. So, for example, AMMAR Capital, a group of women in the state of prostitution in Buenos Aires not only gives the book to people they believe will use it, but they also sell it in street fairs and then use the money for local projects that they self manage. Or the MTD la Matanza has often exchanged the book for other books at encuentros. (I sell the book in the US and Canada so that this can happen). So, if you could give me an address and a sense of how many books you would like to receive I will mail them in mid March when I go to the AK warehouse. Solidarity, Marina Sitrin |
