The attentive reader might ask: why a special issue on decoloniality and crisis? What is decoloniality, what do we mean by crisis, and why pair them together? The reason is simple (at least in our eyes): we see decoloniality and crisis as arguably the two key terms/processes/realities of our new millennium, which, tellingly, seem to have to come to fruition at roughly the same time. Just as the new century, certainly post-9/11, was starting to move away from the rhetoric of the “end of history” to one of a “clash of civilizations,” of permanent instability and conflict (i.e. crisis), so also an explicitly decolonial perspective was starting to gain ground, at least among radical academics and activists, primarily in the U.S., the Caribbean, and Latin America. The near simultaneous emergence of (in Walter Mignolo's words) a “grammar of decoloniality” and (a new sense and dimensions of) crisis needs to give us a pause. Perhaps reading them side by side can be mutually illuminating, as in a sort of dialectic, whereby the mutual confrontation of the two realities adds further layers of complexity to each one [...]
La Campanya Tanquem els CIE neix el gener de 2012 arrel de la mort d’Idrissa Diallo, un noi de Guinea Conakry que estava pres al CIE de Barcelona. Els primers membres provenen de diferents organitzacions i col·lectius en defensa dels drets de les persones migrants; ara per ara, però, són nombrosos els activistes a nivell individual que poc a poc s’han anat sumant al grup [...]

It is our aim that the procession visualizes ideas of the protest with as many different installations and sculptures as possible. World economy, war, flight, expulsion, refugee camp systems, racist government and authorities, resistance, solidarity, and local communities are some references to the different forms of creative representation we are searching for. Live Music Acts are also part of the program.

We live in the time of crisis, even a double crisis: a crisis of the Left or Marxism, and a crisis of the capitalist mode of production itself. That is to say, on top of our list of current uncertainties - ideological, political and economic, we should add ‘theoretical’. We do not have a theory of the present. In this regard, the aim of this journal is to critically examine and comprehend not only the existing conjunctures, but also the possibilities of reinventing the idea of radical emancipation, under the name of Communism.

Esta antología pretende cartografiar la emergencia de toda una serie de discursos, prácticas políticas y producciones culturales ligadas al feminismo y a las luchas de liberación sexual y de género que habitan activamente los movimientos sociales del Estado español. No es una recapitulación de todas las reivindicaciones y acciones que se han emprendido desde lo que podríamos llamar feminismos queer, transfeminismos o nuevos feminismos. Se trata más bien de crear un archivo para recuperar y mantener un legado de activismos, visibilizando las voces de algunas de sus protagonistas. Voces que desafian las formas de saber científico y del pensamiento institucional, voces que aportan la imprescindible experiencia a un movimiento. A través de cada texto se reconstruye una genealogía, se lanzan preguntas, se visibilizan posturas, debates y colectivos. Este libro es, sobre todo, un compromiso con la recreación y la reconstrucción de saberes subversivos, de experiencias y memorias políticas al servicio de quienes luchan en los intersticios del feminismo.
Davant la ineficàcia dels mecanismes de control del Centre d'Internament d'Estrangers, i la manca de transparència dels CIE, més que mai apel·lem a la mobilització ciutadana per assenyalar l'opacitat d'aquests centres i exigir el tancament immediat dels CIE. A dia d'avui ha quedat més que demostrat que l'única garantia per al respecte dels drets de les persones internes és el tancament dels CIE.
Per això, convoquem a la manifestació del dissabte 11 de gener de 2014, a les 16:30 h a la plaça Espanya i a les 17:00 h al CIE de la Zona Franca.

“In the belly of fascism” is a trans-disciplinary project that deals with the intersection between Italian historical colonialism and today’s racism in contemporary Italy. The aim is to analyze critically the present Italian colonial matrix of power through the thinking and critical engagement of those who have the status of migrant cultural workers, including the so-called “second generation” migrants, that are precise regarding their post-colonial background, in order to acquire a non-Eurocentric genealogy of our European history.
