  • Zara, Sher, Arturo and Tancrede have a conversation about “Critique Of Violence” by Walter Benjamin. We discuss the various notions of “political general strike” and “proletarian general strike” contained in Benjamin’s landmark essay and we also relate the notions of violence in the essay to current events such as the farmer’s protest in India, the right wing attack on the US government of January 6th and the George Floyd Uprising of last summer.
