Zapatista Encuentro: Documents from the 1996 Encounter for Humanity and Against Neoliberalism (Open Media Pamphlet)

Mexico's Zapatistas have come to be recognised as a potent social movement armed with poetry, folk tales, patience and humour. They are also known for their inspiring communiques and letters. This revised volume presents one of their most powerful poems, a Whitmanesque manifesto that calls for democracy based on diversity, social justice, creativity, openness and inclusion. ZAPATISTA ENCUENTRO is a powerful and beautiful testament to the importance of community and connection in an age of consumerism and corporate control.
