Save Can

چکیده
This article discusses the possibilities that a deeper engagement with the work of Gabriel Tarde opens for Actor-Network Theory (ANT). It argues that the combination of ANT’s methodological and analytical orientation and Tarde’s neo-monadology offers an appropriate framework for the study of new forms of political activism. Findings from an ethnographic research on the conflict surrounding the eviction and demolition of the Can Ricart factory in Barcelona are used to discuss: a) how ANT transforms the objects of inquiry into performative, relational entanglements (or monads); and b) how Tarde’s neomonadology helps to re-imagine the political in ANT, moving away from the design of new parliamentary forms and towards a politics of invention. Three key moments of invention in the conflict are discussed: the assemblage of a new activist collective; the fabrication of the very factory the movement was trying to save; and the generation of a bifurcation in the conditions of possibility in which the conflict was taking place.
