David Harvie Audio: ‘The Crisis of Antagonism and the Crisis of Organisation’
David Harvie, a member of the Turbulence collective (and also of The Free Association), participated in last year’s Attac Suisse summer school, where he spoke on The Crisis of Antagonism and the Crisis of Organisation. The audio recording of his talk and the ensuing discussion is now available below. David is first introduced (in French) by Carol Bonvin, an Attac Suisse activist and one of the event’s organisers. David begins his talk 2mins 20sec into the recording and speaks (in English) for just over half an hour. The questions/discussion part of the session starts at 34.45; this might be much harder to follow, unfortunately, as participants mostly speak in German or French (with whispered translations into English), whilst David responds in English.

Spanish Language Journal ‘Herramienta’ Publish ‘Life in Limbo?’ Translation
In April 2010, at the World People’s Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth in Cochabamba, Bolivia, we launched the first Spanish language edition [PDF] of Turbulence, containing a number of articles previously included in Issue 5. Now, the web edition of the Spanish language journal, Herramienta, revista de debate y crítica marxista, based in Argentina, has published our Issue 5 editorial article, Life in Limbo?

Turbulence is a journal/newspaper that we hope will become an ongoing space in which to think through, debate and articulate the political, social, economic and cultural theories of our movements, as well as the networks of diverse practices and alternatives that surround them. Read more here
