Queering the protest's temporalities

Abstract

This essay reviews a set of contemporary experiences of sex-political organization in the history of the Argentinian antagonistic imagination. It sketches an experimental, theoretical diagram of the power of queer negativity as it has been mobilized by several strategies of public space occupation. Addressing the interference and discontinuity of political time in the wake of new experiences of strike allows one to identify other forms of critical approaches to the streets' heteronormative control systems. It also allows one to trace how new agencies of common organization can be activated for destabilizing the projective direction of emancipatory Left utopias, creating space for new vital protests.
