<span style="font-size:16px">Very recently valuable and concrete reflections are being published, filling in the public understanding of the nature and dynamics of the most-recent social and emancipatory uprisings, known also as Global Revolution.

They explain masterfully why transnational ‘organization’ of the global ‘revolution’ is qualitatively different then what we have understood from traditional use of the concepts of ‘organization’ and ‘revolution’.

Though I was not directly linked to, nor collaborated with the work done around the Global Revolution research collaboration, since I simply was not aware of it during the heavy tempo of practice of <span style="font-size:16px">actively, socially and politically making use of the social networking technologies that enabled and aggregated the new collective political practices. However being part of the same praxis, of such network-movements, and reading these recent publications, I have come to realise that there has been remarkable overlapping and similarity between my approach and Global Revolution research-action, especially when when it comes to thinking of the new ontology and epistemology of the emerging p2p networked-movements.</span></p>
