Searching for community
ways of critical thinking in global south
by Fabricio Pereira da Silva
As a response to the widespread social, economic and ecological malaise that is a consequence of the expansion of modernity, Fabricio Pereira da Silva gives voice to a quest that has long been a banner of the left: the yearning for a fairer, more equitable way of life, free from the modern values of individualism, exploitation and inconsequential and disproportionate economic growth, based on the recovery and re-reading of pre-capitalist ways of life. This book is driven by the urgency of a utopia that recovers the ideas of communality gestated in the global periphery to inspire another kind of future. In Search of Community presents a list of theoretical perspectives created in the so-called Global South, with the aim of overcoming a “monoculture of knowledge”. Fabricio Pereira da Silva analyzes Mariátegui's Indo-American socialism, the concepts of negritude and ubuntu, 20th century African socialisms, the idea of Good Living (sumak kawsay/suma qamaña) and Bhutan's gross internal happiness. By “illustrating the richness of proposals from the periphery”, the author offers us other theoretical resources, capable of dealing with the “crisis of modernity, the crisis of Western Marxism and socialist projects in a modernist key”.

Picture booksMay 2017Over the Hill Together
by Da Chuzhe
From the fifth year of their marriage, Sumiko had to receive treatment in hospital for the acute pain caused by multiple rheumatoid arthritis. From that time on the disease had seized her. From 1982, Sumiko had to lie in the bed or rely on a wheelchair for the significant dysfunction of the upper limbs and the paralysis of the lower limbs, so she had to let her husband see to her daily life. And Oochuje took care of her basically all by himself unless he had a business trip and he would hire a care worker. This illustrated book elaborately depicts the story between them, including how they met and fell in love with each other during childhood, their daily conversations, their poems as well as their relentless fighting against disease. At the final part of the book, it mainly records the last thirty-three days from December 1997 to January 1998 during which the couple spent together until Sumiko had passed away. The words of the book is selected and the drawings simple yet profound through which one will be deeply touched for the deep and unchangeable love. “Over the hill” in common sense is an expression for death, but it means a whole new world for Oochuje and Sumiko where they would also walk side by side. Their love and cherish for each other was well beyond life and death for they never ceased to bring happiness for each other. And their love story has also enriched the world with pure beauty and wonder of love.
