The fall of the Eagle 1. The Exedra in flames: Postanarchist analysis of militant insubordination

Abstract

This article traces a line of tactical thought pointing out a sequence of methodological affinities touched by poststructuralism, postanarchism and joyful militancy, for the case study of the performative mural The Fall of the Eagle 1. The Exedra in Flames, in the antiauthoritarian exercise of insubordination and celebratory insurrection that burst into the politics of life, revealing the structural scaffolding of violent institutional authoritarianisms tending to the partisan of State in a territory occupied by gore capitalism, in the city of Aguascalientes, Mexico. During the analysis, a transversal report will be crossed that will allow the observation, identification and analysis of the emotions of militant insubordination, revealing in the process the socioemotional irruption of what will be called “normative contracture of the social order”, as testimony of the existing contraction of social bodies in the negotiation and conditioning of life policies inside and outside artistic education programs.
