Submission
Between February and March 2020, all over the world, heads of state made
solemn and grave announcements in order to prepare
their populations for what appeared to be a new era : one of war against
the virus. Within a couple months, the sabotage of telecommunication
infrastructures had almost become a daily event in France, as well as in
other European countries. Simultaneously, a debate sprang up within
anarchist and radical ecological publications, in particular about the
meaning and efficiency of these acts. How could we undermine
technological control ? Could we provoke a tipping point within this
situation? What scenarios did these sabotages open up ? How could we
consider efficiency, organization and ethics altogether?
Nowadays, the situation has evolved, but the problems brought up by the
following texts remain unresolved, maybe even more
so now, and without obvious answers : what are the links between direct
action and social or ecological movements? What strategies emerge when
we separate or combine anarchist, ecologist and techno-critical
perspectives? How do these strategies integrate a now-decisive element :
the war in Europe, which will guide and harden the grip of states on
their populations.
