Issue #1: What would it mean to win?
Turbulence is a journal-cum-newspaper that we hope will become an ongoing
space in which to think through, debate and articulate the political,
social, economic and cultural theories of our movements, as well as the
networks of diverse practices and alternatives that surround them. The first
issue, produced in newspaper form and distributed en masse at the
mobilisation around the 2007 G8 Summit in Heiligendamm, Germany, addresses
the question: What would it mean to win?
At the end of the 20th century many involved in various movements around the
world had the sense that 'we were winning'. In 2007, things appear much more
complicated. The Turbulence collective asked 14 groups, collectives and
individuals to confront this essential questionŠ
The articles from the first issue are now available to read and download
online.
