The Politics of Autonomy in Latin America: The Art of Organising Hope

by Ana Cecilia Dinerstein

The author contests older concepts of autonomy as either revolutionary or ineffective vis-?-vis the state. Looking at four prominent Latin American movements, she defines autonomy as 'the art of organising hope': a tool for indigenous and non-indigenous movements to prefigure alternative realities at a time when utopia can be no longer objected.
