Zapatista Indigenism in the SARS-COV 2 Pandemic (Covid 19) Imaginaries and Aesthetics of Language in Times of Resistance and Hope

Abstract

In this text will be developed how violence actualizes concrete chronologies of Capital at the same time that a " state of exception " of words mediated by hope. In the face of the historical drama concerning nature and symbolic-cultures colonized by the fetish of money, it will be underlined how the consciousness and unconsciousness, fears and hopes implicit in the alienated problematics of the pandemic, are a constituent part of the ruins provoked by the formal, integral, structural and functional system of abstract labor in indigenous identities and nationalisms; value, merchandise fetishism, and money. It will be emphasized how aspirations in long times of history contain in entities and subjectivities a critique against the violence of abstract labor. It will be highlighted how sensitivities – in poetry, legends and traditions of the art of the word– create memorial qualities for the production of alternative spaces. In a dialogue with specters of the critical tradition, we will note how spiritualities of the theological time are renewed against tyrannies in these dark times of faith in the militarized idol-progress-money-death. Thus, in order to go beyond catastrophic pre-post-des-colonialist repetitions, the same thing examined by the reformisms of the moment, the indigenous Zapatistas embark on alta montaña de altamar, but once again, counter-current to new capitalist normality.
