Description
Challenging this association, Dösemeci begins the story with the 18th century establishment of a transatlantic regime of movement that coerced goods and bodies into a violent and ceaseless motion. He then details the resistance to this regime over the next three centuries, interweaving disparate social struggles such as food riots, Caribbean maroon communities, Atlantic pirates, secret societies and syndicalism, the student New Left, Black Power, radical feminism, operaismo, and the Zapatistas into a history of politics as disruption. Dösemeci convincingly argues that their stories are both key to understanding the resurgence of disruptive politics in the 21st century and offer valuable guidance for future struggles seeking to overturn an ever-intensifying regime of movement.
