Identifying the revolutionary agent in the radical project of autogestion

Abstract

In our article, ‘Henri Lefebvre's Conception of Nature-Society in the Revolutionary Project of Autogestion’, we sought to open an important dialog on the relation of autogestion to the ecological struggle for metabolic restoration. The four insightful commentaries in this dialog have taken up this argument and moved it forward substantially. Here, we briefly reflect on a central problem raised by these four interventions and Lefebvre's theory of autogestion more generally: The agent of radical social transformation.
