1. Neue Bücher (English/Deutsch)
They Can't Represent Us!: Reinventing Democracy from Greece to Occupy
Dario Azzellini and Marina Sitrin, Foreword by David Harvey (Verso Books) Paperback, 192 pages, ISBN: 9781781680971, £9.99
June 1st, 2014
Here is one of the first books to assert that mass protest movements in disparate places such as Greece, Argentina, and the United States share an agenda—to raise the question of what democracy should mean. These horizontalist movements, including Occupy, exercise and claim participatory democracy as the ground of revolutionary social change today. The new movements put forward the idea that liberal democracy is not democratic, nor was it ever.

“Self-Organization and Self-Education in Venezuela.” Azzellini, Dario; Ressler, Oliver
in: The Second World Congress of Free Artists. In Three Acts. Aarhus: Camel Collective/Kunsthal Aarhus, 239-242
This is a research project that culminated in a six-hour theatrical performance building upon the First World Congress organized in Alba, Italy, in 1956 by Asger Jorn and Pinot Gallizio among others. The Aarhus performance marks a collaboration with six actors and over 30 writers in the performance of original scripts that offer assessment and analysis of the political conditions of artistic higher education, classroom power relations, and the inherent tensions between audience and performer.

Venezuela: paramilitarismo e ‘contra’ in costruzione
http://albainformazione.wordpress.com - 02.04.2014
Tratto da El negocio de la guerra. Nuevos mercenarios y terrorismo de Estado. Caracas: Monte Àvila Editores, 2009.
Trad. dal castigliano per ALBAinformazione a cura di Pier Paolo Palermo
Il processo bolivariano in Venezuela è nel mirino degli Stati Uniti, non solo per la grande ricchezza di risorse del paese (principalmente petrolio, ma anche gas, acqua, alluminio, ferro, oro, biodiversità e altro ancora) ma anche per il ruolo centrale che svolge nell’integrazione continentale che si sta sviluppando e la possibilità di cambiamenti fondamentali che la politica estera venezuelana apre anche per altri paesi. Non c’è dubbio che gli Stati Uniti siano disposti a far crollare il processo bolivariano con qualsiasi mezzo. E come si è visto in passato questo significa che non è escluso il ricorso all’opzione militare.

Quadriga - World Cup Risks - Can Brazil win?
www.dw.de | May 8, 2014 | 0:42:33
Deutsche Welle in English
In one month's time the Soccer World Cup kicks off in Brazil. But the country has a serious problem with violence in the poor urban neighbourhoods called favelas. And the problem is spreading: Brazil's tourist centres are increasingly affected. Angry people are using the World Cup to draw attention to the appaling conditions they are forced to live in and to the failures of their government.

They Can’t Represent Us! – New Global Movements and Democracy
Video of the lecture held March, 26th 2014 at at the CEU - Central European University, Budapest
14.04.2014 | 1:37:15
2011, 2012 and 2013 have been years of uprisings, movements and moments – all against an economic crisis and the politics of representation. Kefya! Ya Basta! and Enough! are shouted by millions against an untenable situation – and simultaneously they are met with Democracia Real Ya! and We are the 99%! - powerful affirmations.
We believe we are in another significant historic epoch. This one is marked by an ever increasing global rejection of representative democracy, and simultaneously a massive coming together of people, not previously organized, using directly democratic forms to begin to reinvent ways of being together.

The grassroots of Venezuela
Florida Caribe Radio | WSLR 96.5 LP FM | Sarasota, FL, USA | 1h | 14.02.2014
The mainstream media view has it that left-leaning populists are keeping democracy in a stranglehold. Seen from the grassroots in Venezuela, that view is very different. We interview Dario Azzellini, an assistant professor, activist who spends a lot of time in Venezuela, and a filmmaker.

Der Krieg gegen das Soziale
Gewaltsame Destabilisierung und Paramilitarismus hängen in Venezuela eng zusammen
Amerika21.de | 31. März 2014
In deutschen und internationalen Medien ist immer noch von "Protesten" in Venezuela und "Toten bei Protesten" zu lesen – doch mit dem, was gemeinhin als "Protest" verstanden wird, haben die Aktionen kleiner, bewaffneter, agiler Gruppen seit spätestens Anfang März nichts mehr gemein. Nachdem die gewalttätige Mobilisierung der Opposition, die Anfang Februar begann und von einer beispiellosen internationalen Medienkampagne begleitet wurde, ihr Ziel des Sturzes der Regierung in Venezuela nicht erreichen konnte, sind die Aktionen zunehmend in Terrorismus übergegangen. Zwar war Gewalt von Beginn an Teil der oppositionellen Mobilisierung, denn es sollte ja vom Staat oder von der chavistischen Basis eine gewalttätige Reaktion provoziert werden, die weitere Schritte – von der internationalen Isolation bis zu einer Intervention – rechtfertigen würde, doch trotz zahlreicher Morde an Sicherheitskräften, Regierungsanhängern und Unbeteiligten hielten sich sowohl die Ordnungskräfte als auch die Basis des Transformationsprozesses zurück. Die Provokation gelang nicht.

Workers’ control at Fralib: the brand with the Elephant
www.roarmag.org | May, 1st 2014
When the big multinational Unilever shut down a tea processing plant in the south of France, the workers reacted immediately by occupying their factory.
In France there are two cases of recuperated factories occupied by workers during the current crisis. One is the Pilpa Ice Cream Factory, which just started producing organic ice cream and yoghurt as a worker-owned and administered company after a long-lasting struggle. The other is the Fralib Tea Factory. Both were closed by their huge multinational owners to relocate production.

Venezuela: Where the Wealthy Stir Violence While the Poor Build a New Society
CREATIVETIMEREPORTS | April 28, 2014
Artist and documentary filmmaker Dario Azzellini argues the protests in Venezuela represent a vicious attack on the country's social progress under Hugo Chávez, spurred on by anti-Chavista politicians in affluent regions.
Before Hugo Chávez became president of Venezuela in 1999, the barrios of Caracas, built provisionally on the hills surrounding the capital, did not even appear on the city map. Officially they did not exist, so neither the city nor the state maintained their infrastructure. The poor inhabitants of these neighborhoods obtained water and electricity by tapping pipes and cables themselves. They lacked access to services such as garbage collection, health care and education altogether...

Interview with Dario Azzellini and Marina Sitrin by Anna Belladelli
Iperstoria.it | February 28th, 2014
In September 2011, activists occupied Zuccotti Park in Manhattan, initiating a new wave of struggle against capitalism and unprecedented recession. The impact of the Occupy movement has been noticeable also outside the USA, affecting forms of protests, actions, and language. The echo of powerful keywords and catchphrases such as “we are the 99 percent,” “eat the rich,” and “occupy” itself, have inspired protests worldwide, offering new symbols and paradygms to expose long-time unbalanced power relations that have been covered and made unspeakable or invisible by decades of propaganda and biased media representations.

Venezuela: Bohatí podněcují násilí, chudí budují společnost
www.wertyzreport.com | 3 dny ago
Než se v roce 1999 stal prezidentem Venezuely Hugo Chávez, caracaské barrios, postavené na kopcích obklopujících metropoli, se ani neobjevovaly na mapě města. Oficiálně neexistovaly, město ani stát neudržovaly svou infrastrukturu. Chudí obyvatelé těchto čtvrtí získávali vodu a elektřinu, když se na kabely a trubky napojovali sami. Neměli přístup k různým službám jako je odvoz odpadu, zdravotní péče a vzdělání.

Controllo operaio alla Fralib

Traduzione di Giuseppe Volpe dell'articolo "Workers’ control at Fralib: the brand with the Elephant" pubblicato su www.roarmag.org, 01.05.2014
In Francia ci sono due casi di fabbriche recuperate occupate dai lavoratori nel corso della crisi attuale. Una è la fabbrica di gelati Pilpa, che ha appena avviato la produzione di gelati e yogurt biologici come società di proprietà dei lavoratori e gestita da essi dopo una lunga lotta. L’altra è la produttrice di tè Fralib. Entrambe erano state chiuse dalle loro gigantesche proprietarie multinazionali per delocalizzare la produzione.

Chávez e il Potere Costituente
Amerindia, 03/2014, pp. 21-23
Nel corso degli ultimi decenni, a livello internazionale, uno dei principali punti di contesa, nella sinistra favorevole ad una profonda trasformazione sociale, soprattutto in America Latina, è stata la questione della presa al potere, la soluzione per poter collaborare con le istituzioni,o ancora meglio rifiutare qualsiasi coinvolgimento con lo Stato. Potremmo definire questi due prospetti più o meno come i concetti “dall’alto” e “dal basso”. Con l’avvento del Comandante Hugo Chavez alla presidenza, all’inizio del 1999, si inaugurò in Venezuela un processo di profonda trasformazione sociale avviata da un’ampia sinistra, che partiva da posizioni socialdemocratiche, nazionaliste rivoluzionarie, liberiste e socialiste fino ad arrivare alle diverse correnti rivoluzionarie della sinistra e diverse espressioni dei movimenti popolari. Questa confluenza di strategie “dall’alto” e “dal basso”, generalmente considerate incompatibili, obbligò tutta la sinistra a riflettere sulle diverse tipologie...

Kada je velika multinacionalna kompanija Unilever zatvorila tvornicu čaja na jugu Francuske radnici su okupirali svoju fabriku
U Francuskoj postoje dva slučaja oživjelih tvornica koje su okupirali radnici tokom krize. Jedna je Pipla Ice Cream Factory, koja je upravo počela proizvoditi organski sladoled i jogurt kao tvornica koju vode i čiji su vlasnici radnici, nakon dugotrajne borbe. Druga je Fralib Tea Factory. Obje su bili zatvorene nakon što su njihovi vlasnici, velike multinacionalne kompanije, odlučile preseliti proizvodnju.

Invitation to discussion on "Post-Chávez Venezuela: New Directions under the Presidency of Nicolás Maduro?"
Saturday, May 31, 05:00pm - 06:50pm in Room 1.124
Abstract: In many ways, the challenges faced by Hugo Chávez’s successor Nicolás Maduro are a continuation of those dating back to 1998. Nevertheless, the economic crisis caused by shortages and currency speculation is more intense than during the Chávez presidency. The Maduro government’s reaction both at the level of discourse and specific actions is also distinct in some ways. The panel will attempt to determine what elements are relatively new. It will discuss the government’s activist role against business and political groups responsible for acute shortages, sharp price increases often far above that set by the government, currency speculation and refusal of the opposition to recognize the government’s legitimacy...
