Barricade, pot, ballot box. Towards a political assault on the institutional?

Abstract

In this paper I intend to examine, from a critical approach to politics, the epistemological and techno-political displacement produced by the “great national strike” of 2021 in Colombia and its effects on the electoral sphere. Through of a “symptomatic” description of the organizational practices of the strike, we will try to show the “rupture” character of the Colombian political present, as a process of formation of forces of “de-governmentalisation” of the power-resistance relation from the emergence of new forms of political subjectivation.
