Joint spaces, self-managing networks and alternative exchanges in the city of Buenos Aires

Abstract

During the last years, a set of alternative socio-economic experiences to the neoliberal globalization differentiation and exclusion process have been arising. Collective actions and diverse popular strategies have became visible, and have constituted local spaces of resistance, against the advance of global capitalism. In this article, we make an approach to some of the self-management experiences in Buenos Aires city. To do this work, we will analyze the way in which they dare the hegemonic ways to build the economy, thinking about their potentialities of change, and their main challenges.
