This weekâs edition of the Horizontal Power Hour features excerpts from a presentation by the radical Mexican development critic Gustavo Esteva titled âBeyond Development and Globalization: Anarchy & Buen Vivirâ originally given in Middletown, CT on February 13, 2012. Esteva is a âdeprofessionalizedâ intellectual and grassroots activist. His writing of the past 25 years has figured centrally to what is now called âcritical development studies.â He works both independently and in conjunction with a variety of Mexican NGOâs and grassroots organizations and communities in Chiapas, Mexico, including the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (or EZLN). In the talk, Esteva emphasizes the terminal inadequacy of prevailing political priorities and illuminates the radical potentiality of what he calls âthe ongoing insurrectionâ which surrounds us every day. In addition to the wise words of Esteva, we share some less-wise words from Supreme Court âJusticeâ Antonin Scalia, who explains his refusal to strike down Texas anti-sodomy laws in Lawrence v. Texas. Abundant, exciting action news from every continent (except Antarctica) is shared. Inspiration guaranteed!
