Social uprising and a new constitution
Author: Nelly Richard.
Presentation: Javier Trimboli.
In October 2019, the slogan “Chile woke up” marked the people's desire to reclaim a vital force that had been drained by the post-dictatorship neoliberal pact. Nelly Richard reviews the dizzying journey from jumping the subway turnstiles to the formation of a Constitutional Convention tasked with drafting a new constitution in 2021, asking how to channel the vital energies of the revolt into certain transformative frameworks that will influence the redesign of democracy.
The Critical Mass library makes available to readers a set of essential texts to interpret the frayed edges of the present and to deploy collective capacities to transform it.
