Current tensions and challenges surrounding autonomous popular constructions
From Rebelion dot org by Diego Naim Saiegh
In the following paper, we will investigate certain implications that are currently being exhibited when it comes to carrying out processes of autonomous popular construction - with emphasis on those whose political and methodological perspectives can be inscribed within a libertarian socialist matrix - in a historical context marked by structural unemployment, the growth of poverty and, in general terms, the precariousness of life as a social form. We will try to put forward, through our journey, certain threads of analysis on some problems to be faced according to the aforementioned context, particularly in the framework of our Latin American peripheral societies, and some hypotheses on the challenges to be faced in order to overcome them in an emancipatory key.
