Fight against the Terror in Nandigram, Build your Own Independent and United Struggle

A fugitive criminal is ruling roost in Nandigram, directing a huge armed force of party cadres. A police officer waves and gives a beaming smile to the criminal while passing by in his jeep — a picture familiar in today’s ‘peaceful’ Nandigram. A group of socially established intellectuals were prohibited from proceeding towards Nandigram on the basis of Government’s directive a day before the Panchayat polls.

The Strategy of Concealment: Towards an Anarchist Critique of Communication Roger Farr

[An earlier version of this essay appeared in Fifth Estate #375 (Spring 2007)]

Governance and the Undercommons Stefano Harney

The Third Term 1. Governance is a third term, beyond sovereignty or governmentality. Although the term governance may still mark a form of government. It is longer only a political term. Governance is also now a term of the economy, not in the sense that the economy is also governed, as in corporate governance, but as economy itself. Governance is a form of economic production itself.

ON MARCH 28, Lalpari Devi, a 45-year-old Dalit woman was accused of being a witch by caste-Hindu, feudal villagers in Bihar who mercilessly beat her up, paraded her through the streets, tied her to a palm tree, cut her hair and smeared her face with limestone paste. She was saved from certain death by the timely arrival of the police. Lalpari somehow managed to survive the ordeal of social censure and hysteric, mob-driven humiliation. Many of her sisters have not been that lucky.

The assassinations of Salvador Allende and Amílcar Cabral in 1973 mark the end of the last truly transformative sequence in world politics, the sequence of national liberation associated with the victories of Mao Tse-tung, Mohandas Gandhi, and Fidel Castro. It may be that this end is itself now coming to an end, through the clarification of what Mao might have called a new ‘‘principal contradiction’’—the convergence, most obviously in Iraq and Haiti, of ever more
