363 pages ; 22 cm, \"\"Emancipation,\" argues Raúl Zibechi, \"is not an objective but a way of life.\" For the last half century, new and emancipatory social formations have worked to carve out their own territories in Latin America, experimenting in rural and urban settings with new forms of liberatory politics that challenge neocolonialism, neoliberalism, and the very basis of the state itself. Not limited to a single path, these \"societies in movement\" have adopted forms of communitarian relations that allow experimentation and innovation to flourish at a riveting pace. Blending case studies and history with social theory and analysis, Zibechi opens our eyes to the new world being born just outside our gaze. With a foreword by Dawn Paley, and an epilogue that brings Zibechi into conversation with Michael Hardt and Alvaro Reyes on the continuing revolution of everyday life in Latin America.\"--Publisher's website, Includes bibliographical references (pages 335-348) and index, Movements as bearers of \"other worlds\" -- Latin America in movement -- The peripheries of Latin America : territories of hope -- Progressive governments and social movements -- Epilogue
