Performance Constellations maps transnational protest movements and the dynamics of networked expressive behavior in the streets and online, as people struggle to be heard and effect long-term social justice. Its case studies explore collective political action in Latin America, including the Zapatistas in the mid-’90s, protests during the 2001 Argentine economic crisis, the 2011 Chilean student movement, the 2014–2015 mobilizations for the disappeared Ayotzinapa students, and the 2018 transnational reproductive rights movement. The book analyzes uses of space, time, media communication, and corporeality in protests such as virtual sit-ins, flash mobs, scarfazos, and hashtag campaigns, arguing that these protests not only challenge hegemonic power but are also socially transformative. While other studies have focused either on digital activism or on street protests, Performance Constellations shows that they are in fact integrally entwined. Zooming in on protest movements and art-activism in Mexico, Argentina, and Chile, and putting contemporary insurgent actions in dialogue with their historical precedents, the book demonstrates how, even in moments of extreme duress, social actors in Latin America have taken up public and virtual space to intervene politically and to contest dominant powers.

Por un lado Donald Trump haciendo su típico baile en plena campaña electoral mientras suena una famosa canción de Village People; por el otro, el colectivo chileno Lastesis llevando adelante su intervención estético-política Un violador en tu camino. Los dos casos reúnen los elementos característicos de una performance, ¿pero acaso son lo mismo?En Activismos tecnopolíticos, Marcela Fuentes sostiene que las performances de lxs líderes políticxs apuntan sobre todo a la creación de públicos y seguidorxs, mientras que las performances contrahegémonicas no buscan el espectáculo sino la justicia social.A lo largo del libro, la autora recorre diferentes casos de acción política colectiva en Latinoamérica: el movimiento zapatista surgido a mediados de los noventa, las protestas durante la crisis económica argentina de 2001, las manifestaciones estudiantiles chilenas de 2011, las movilizaciones por los estudiantes desaparecidos de Ayotzinapa y el surgimiento del colectivo feminista Ni Una Menos.Fuentes, especialista en los estudios de performance, analiza en este libro imprescindible los pañuelazos, los flash mobs, las sentadas virtuales, las campañas de hashtags y las manifestaciones que ocupan las calles de diferentes ciudades como fenómenos integralmente entrelazados que desafían el poder hegemónico mientras ofrecen, al mismo tiempo, nuevas herramientas para la transformación social.
