Holloway - Crack Capitalism.pdf - Libcom

Michael Kasenbacher, Marina Sitrin, Alejandro Merani, Simon
Susen, Paul Chatterton, David-Brian-Keir-and-Nette of the
Free Association, Sabu Kohso, Chris Carlsson and Maggie
Sinclair; and Antonio Ortiz who listened to and understood
my explanations, and Hierson Rojas who helps me all the time
in dealing with the university world, and Virginia Castillo too,
constantly in support; and then the doctoral students not yet
mentioned whom I have been privileged to supervise in the last
few years, especially Lars Stubbe, Vittorio Sergi, Alberto Bonnet,
Rafael Sandoval, Manuel Martinez, Mina Navarro, Nashyeli
Figueroa, Dario Azzelini, Mariana Munoz, Juquila Gonzalez;
and my children not-so-children, Aidan, Anna-Maeve and
Mariana Holloway, who irradiate my life; and Richard Gunn,
who is always there even when contact is sporadic, and David
Castle, ever helpful and encouraging, and all the others in Pluto
who make this into a book; my thanks too to the millions who
are the heroes of this book and to the thousands who have
participated in the discussions of this book's mother, Change the
World without taking Power, which immersed me in a world
of practical and theoretical debate that exists in, against and,
increasingly, beyond the universities, in a world of cracks, in
the many forums created by the restlessness of rebel thought:
the world and regional social forums, the Zapatista events, the
'other' seminars, the wonderful week spent shaping a common
word in the Zapatista community of Oventic, meetings with
piqueteros and dissident teachers and autonomous groups of
various shapes and sizes; and the many, many people who
knowingly or unknowingly have inspired me and without whom
this book would be inconceivable, George Wilson and Eileen
Simpson and Rod McKenzie, for example, and the espirales and
the ex-espirales, the solanos and the ex-solanos and the JRA, not
to mention the pizzeros; and, neither last nor least, my thanks
to you, dear reader, who have either reached this last page or
else opened the book from the back, a back that is a front, a last
page which is a beginning not an end; and to more and more
and more, a torrential flow ...
