          a moment when the old assumption about politics and power have

          common sense, about what people basically are and what it is
          reasonable for
          them to expect from the world, and from each other. In this
          volume Graeber
          draws from the realms of politics, art, and the imagination to
          start this

          uprisings in
          Argentina… In the heat of an economic and political crisis,
          people in Argentina
          took to the streets on December 19<sup>th</sup>, 2001,
          shouting <i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">“¡Qué se vayan
            todos!”</i> These words –
          “All of them out!” – hurled by thousands banging pots and
          pans, struck at every
          politician, economist, and journalist. These events opened a
          period of intense
          social unrest and political creativity that led to the
          collapse of government
          after government. Neighborhoods organized themselves into
          hundreds of popular
          assemblies across the country, the unemployed workers movement
          acquired a new
          visibility, workers took over factories and businesses. These

          sea change, a before and an after for Argentina that resonated

          demanded new forms of thinking and research. This book
          attempts to read those

          remains as relevant
