There are reports from many activist
organizations that indicate both snail mail
and e-mail are continually late,

Austin Project for a Participatory Society Book Group:
Horizontalism: Voices of Popular Power in Argentina
The Austin Project for a Participatory Society's July
book of the month is Marina Sitrin's Horizontalism: Voices of Popular Power
in Argentina. Using horizontal forms of social organization, the diverse,
autonomous social movements that exploded in Argentina following the IMF-led
economic collapse of December 2001 not only transformed the fabric of Argentine
society but also highlighted the possibility of a genuinely democratic
alternative to global capital. Horizontalism is the story of those movements,
as told by the men and women who are building them.
"I hope that the book will inspire people. How could
it not? It is the real stories of people reorganizing their lives and communities
in the ways in which they desire, individually and collectively." - Marina
Sitrin
Participants are encouraged to purchase the book from
Monkeywrench Books (407-6925, 110 E. North Loop), which has ordered extra
copies.
Location: Carver Branch Library, 1161 Angelina St.
