WORKSHOP FOR INTERCOMMUNAL STUDY

Where are we today? Where will today's dynamics take us tomorrow? How can we get from here to where we want go? The Workshop is born of the conviction that, given this decomposition of today's dominant institutions, answers to these questions must begin with the realization that both institutional strategies and merely anti-institutional ones, as well as attempts at their combination-face long term obstacles that will ultimately prove insurmountable. We are convinced that we must instead meet this impasse with the construction of counter-institutions, everywhere and at all levels. In other words, it is clear to us that no one today has answers; all the more reason that we must (re)build spaces, like The Workshop, stubbornly dedicated to recuperating our capacity to research, dialogue, debate, experiment, and sharpen our questions so that we can begin to find our way out of this mess.
