Subjective Struggles and Collective Movements

Movements are constitutive parts of contemporary global realities, buttressed forward by online communicational flows. They present a counterpoint to broad systemic powers which aim to condition and control individuality, thereby deconstructing social life. Financial forces are increasingly constituted through informational platforms, which take place outside the real economy. Moreover these movements increasingly underscore the differentiation between themselves and systemic actors. Movements underscore for us the separation between systemic forces and real life as expressions of the fragmentation of social life. Individual subjects become participants in the construction of collective movements to affirm themselves in the face of systemic domination as well as to engage in experiments around new living constructs as an alternative sociability to fragmentation. Communication by physical and online networks enables individuals to establish a common cultural framework. The result of this is a new political re-democratization and sociability confronting the contemporary context of global reality.
