Beskrivning
Wild Marx seeks to transform the revolutionary European thinker Karl Marx by opening him to the power of Indigenous struggles-lifeforms.The book begins with an introduction of Marx-Engels to a non-European world by means of the classic works of Peruvian intellectual and Marxist thinker, José Carlos Mariátegui. Following that, a dialogue is staged between the political theory of Marx and French Anthropologist Pierre Clastres. Here, Tible lays the groundwork on how to imagine a contemporary Marx capable of thinking-struggling alongside Amerindian collectivities. In the second half of the book, Tible moves to create a productive tension between Marx and the work of the Brazilian anthropologist Eduardo Viveiros de Castro. Here he discusses Viveiros de Castro’s ethnological concept of Amazonian perspectivism and the cosmopolitical manifesto of Yanomami shaman Davi Kopenawa and his notion of “the People of Merchandise”.Wild Marx is essential reading for students and scholars and opens new fields of research on Indigenous movements and struggles in Latin America and beyond.

Jean Tible’s Wild Marx does much more than bring Marx into conversation with Indigenous thought. In staged encounters with Mariátegui, Clastres, Viveiros de Castro, and especially Davi Kopenawa, Marx’s critique of capital is released from the ontoepistemological enclosures that confine the political to the template of the nation-state. Beautifully and powerfully constructed, Tible’s reading makes Marx available otherwise: to struggles for general emancipation from the insatiable hunger of capital that neither begins nor ends with/in the state.Denise Ferreira da Silva, New York University, United StatesTraveling with Marx across indigenous America, Jean Tible opens new vistas of study and struggle. In dialogue with anthropologists like Pierre Clastres and Viveiros de Castro as well as with indigenous thinkers like Yanomami shaman Davi Kopenawa, Marxian notions take new life and his struggle for liberation acquires new dimensions and intensity. This is a must read book for anyone interested in Marx, in Latin America, and in indigenous studies.Sandro Mezzadra, University of Bologna, ItalyCommunities are brought back to life. Nature is reclaiming its rightful place. The pirate sailors who seize slave ships overthrow authority and practice self-management. Marx, in the forest, connects with ancestral knowledge and rediscovers its subversive power. A jubilant, brazenly intelligent book that overlaps places and ages and relieves us of despair.Sonia Dayan-Herzbrun, Université Paris Cité, FranceDo you want to read Marx with questions and geographies opened up by the indigenous struggles of Abya Yala? This book by Jean Tible, following in the words of Mariátegui and José Aricó, of Davi Kopenawa and Oswald de Andrade, proposes a method: to swallow Marx and learn from the history of that digestion. Tible's Wild Marx insists on a question that never stops pursuing us: how are the threads between struggles and words spun and respun?Verónica Gago, University of Buenos Aires and National University of San Martín, ArgentinaTible asks whether State and counter-State, capitalism and communism, are possibilities every society carries at once. His lucid, polyphonic book reads Amerindian thought and Marx through concrete struggles, from the Paris Commune to the Yanomami, and shows how much they have to say to one another. Refusing any universal from above, Wild Marx irreversibly widens the horizon of political intelligibility. We needed this book more than we knew.Fahim Amir, University of the Arts Bremen, GermanyJean Tible spent his early years in politics engaged in urban and rural struggles, with discriminated Brazilian people, peasants with no land, Indigenous groups reclaiming their forest and rivers against destructive projects, Quilombolas and descendants of enslaved people fighting for their rights. His pragmatic experience, and further commitment as a Professor of Political Sciences in São Paulo, gives him a unique expertise to document his original theory about a ‘wild marxism’ in which the creativity of current struggles, led by Indigenous people in Brazil, echoes the history of Marxist peasants and workers.Barbara Glowczewski, National Centre of Scientific Research, FranceIn the face of the major disagreement that currently divides and confronts activists and thinkers of the critical field against one another – Marxism or decolonial critique? Race, ethnicity or class? – Jean Tible’s extraordinary and remarkably erudite reading of Marx shows us that the seeds and foundations for the theoretical development of this debate were already present in the work of the father of historical materialism. The author’s detailed knowledge of Marx’s work across its various stages and constant developments, on the one hand, as well as the avenues opened up therein for a fruitful dialogue with the anthropology of Amerindian societies, constitute a fruitful contribution of rare originality. A great achievement of Wild Marx is that it invites us to undertake a reciprocal exegesis between Marxist theory in its latest unfolding and the findings of anthropology from its origins to the present day. The novelty of this approach lies in its demonstration that the great author of the contemporary critical West was already fully open to dialogue with the worldview and political strategies of the stateless vocation of our continent's peoples.Rita Segato, University of Brasília, Brazil
