"Occupy Wall Street burst onto the stage of history in the fall of 2011. First by the tens, then by the tens of thousands, protestors filled the streets and laid claim to the squares of nearly 1,500 towns and cities, until, one by one, the occupations were forcibly evicted. In The Occupiers, Michael Gould-Wartofsky offers a front-seat view of the action in the streets of New York City and beyond. Painting a vivid picture of everyday life in the square through the use of material gathered in the course of two years of on-the-ground investigation, Gould-Wartofsky traces the occupation of Zuccotti Park--and some of its counterparts across the United States and around the world--from inception to eviction. He takes up the challenges the occupiers faced, the paradoxes of direct democracy, and the dynamics of direct action and police action and explores the ways in which occupied squares became focal points for an emerging opposition to the politics of austerity, restricted democracy, and the power of corporate America. Much of the discussion of the Occupy phenomenon has treated it as if it lived and died in Zuccotti Park, but Gould-Wartofsky follows the evicted occupiers into exile and charts their evolving strategies, tactics, and tensions as they seek to resist, regroup, and reoccupy. Displaced from public spaces and news headlines, the 99 Percent movement has spread out from the financial centers and across an America still struggling to recover in the aftermath of the crisis. Even if the movement fails to achieve radical reform, Gould-Wartofsky maintains, its offshoots may well accelerate the pace of change in the United States in the years to come"--

Un temps oubliée, décriée, ridiculisée, la révolution est aujourd’hui à nouveau un problème politique clé. Outre le Printemps arabe, Occupy Wall Street, Nuit debout, ainsi que les commémorations d’Octobre 17 et de Mai 68 qui en ont réactivé l’imaginaire (voire le désir), un nombre croissant de romans, de récits, de pièces de théâtre et de recueils de poésie contemporains ont pour thème l’insurrection, le soulèvement et la révolte. Une bibliographie comprenant une cinquantaine de titres permet d’en mesurer l’importance. Cette présence de la révolution dans le champ culturel contemporain nous enjoint à reprendre une question posée il y a près d’un siècle par Léon Trotsky, à savoir : comment penser les rapports entre littérature et révolution ? De Jack London au Comité invisible, en passant entre autres par Alfred Döblin, Louis Aragon, Jean Genet et Pierre Michon, cet ouvrage interroge la manière dont les révolutions politiques (réelles ou imaginées, passées ou projetées) ont suscité des configurations et des questionnements esthétiques depuis le début du xxe siècle. Quelles relations entretiennent, dans ces textes, le poétique et le politique ? L’écrivain et le révolutionnaire ? La fiction et l’action ? Aux différentes contributions qui esquissent des réponses à ces interrogations s’ajoutent trois entretiens avec des écrivains (Arno Bertina, Leslie Kaplan, Nathalie Quintane) dont l’œuvre littéraire trame à nouveaux frais la question politique.

Das Verhältnis linker Bewegungen zum Antisemitismus ist ein polarisierendes Thema. Auch in den USA stehen nicht erst seit den Anschlgen von 11. September 2001 Bewegungen wie Occupy Wall Street, die Friedensbewegung oder pro-palästinensische Gruppen unter Antisemitismusverdacht. Häufig sind es ihre Kritik an Israel und damit verbundene Positionen und Aktionen wie Boykottaufrufe, die Anlass für hitzige Debatten in den Medien, an Universitäten oder innerhalb sozialer Bewegungen wie auch der jüdisch-amerikanischen Community geben.Aufbauend auf einer empirisch-ethnografischen Studie analysiert Sina Arnold die Sichtweisen von Aktivistinnen und Aktivisten der US-amerikanischen Linken auf Jüdinnen und Juden, auf das Judentum und den Antisemitismus, aber auch auf Anschlussdiskurse wie den Holocaust, den Antirassismus, die Kapitalismuskritik, die Politik der USA sowie auf Israel und den Nahost-Konflikt. Sie bettet diese Sichtweisen ein in die historische Entwicklung des Judentums und des Antisemitismus in den USA wie auch in verschiedenen Epochen linker Bewegungen. Dadurch werden historische Kontinuitäten, aber auch Veränderungen linker Politik ebenso deutlich wie Paradigmenwechsel und identitäre Verhandlungen innerhalb der jüdisch-amerikanischen Community.Die Analyse linker Antisemitismusdiskurse wirft ein Schlaglicht auf die gegenwärtige Verfasstheit der amerikanischen Gesellschaft in Zeiten von ökonomischer und politischer Krise und trägt überdies zu einem Verständnis des globalen Antisem
