Our modest proposal is to welcome with kindness and without judgement all struggles and deconstructions.
We put forward ideas, not people or associations.
As far as possible, each tract is accompanied by a scientific argument that enables activists and journalists to form informed, solid and well-argued positions.

Convergence of struggles and deconstructions

The convergence of struggles and deconstructions invites us to radically rethink our understanding of power relations and how they manifest themselves in different areas of society.

The main idea behind this convergence is that struggles for emancipation and liberation cannot be thought of in isolation. On the contrary, it is essential to link and understand the different forms of domination and oppression, and to deconstruct them together. This means recognising the invisible links that exist between these different struggles, and adopting a cross-cutting approach to combat the systems of oppression that underpin them.

By adopting a deconstructive perspective, we are led to question the categories and structures of thought that underpin these systems of oppression. The essence of deconstruction is to reveal the presuppositions and hierarchies inherent in these categories, so that they can be challenged and transformed.

From this perspective, the convergence of struggles and deconstructions allows us to explore how different forms of power - whether patriarchy, capitalism, colonialism or racism - are intertwined and mutually reinforcing. By analysing the intersections between these different oppressions, it becomes possible to develop a more holistic vision of the struggle for liberation, taking into account the complexity of human experience.

However, it should be stressed that this convergence is not an easy task. It requires a constant questioning of our own privilege and a deep commitment to social justice. It also requires recognition of marginalised voices and active listening to their experiences, so that together we can build a movement of solidarity and intersectionality.

Ultimately, the convergence of struggles and deconstructions invites us to rethink our traditional conceptions of the struggle for emancipation. The ideas and so-called knowledge we take for granted are often the product of structures of power and domination that maintain privilege and inequality. To truly deconstruct these systems, it is essential to recognise the close links between different forms of struggle and oppression. By questioning traditional categories of thought, we can critically reflect on how these hierarchies operate and how they relate to each other.

Converging struggles and deconstructions does not mean simply bringing different forms of struggle together under a common banner, but rather recognising the specificities of each struggle while establishing the inherent connections between them. A simplistic example: exposing how patriarchy manifests itself in contemporary capitalism or how racism continues to be perpetuated in colonial structures requires us to adopt an intersectional approach.

Deconstructing oppressive systems and constructions of power cannot be done using the same methods and tools that created them. Instead, we must embrace a radical critique of our own positions and recognise that our discourses and knowledge are inevitably informed by complex contexts of power. Challenging these paradigms will enable us to open up new perspectives and build a more just and egalitarian world.

Ultimately, the convergence of struggles and deconstructions is essential if we are to build a society based on social justice and equality. By becoming aware of the interconnections between different forms of oppression, we can develop strategies of resistance that challenge existing power structures and pave the way for radical change. The convergence of struggles and deconstructions invites us to rethink our conceptions of the struggle for emancipation and to develop intersectional and inclusive perspectives that enable everyone to find their place in this movement for social transformation.

From the perspective of the convergence of struggles and deconstructions, it is imperative to understand that the objective is not to reduce all struggles to a single common banner, but rather to recognise the particularities and specificities inherent in each struggle while establishing the intersections that link them.

Each struggle stems from a specific context, with its own issues, its own forms of domination and its own actors. It would therefore be simplistic and reductive to lump them all together under a general label, ignoring the nuances and specificities of each struggle. Recognising this means listening carefully to the voices and experiences of each struggle, without standardising them or assimilating them into a single identity.

However, this does not mean that the struggles are totally isolated from each other. On the contrary, it is vital to discern the underlying links and connections between them. The processes of deconstruction manifest themselves in these connections, revealing the patterns of power and domination that run through different forms of struggle.

These connections can be multiple and complex, and can manifest themselves through shared systems of power, interconnected oppressions or entangled mechanisms of marginalisation. For example, it is possible to highlight the relationships between feminism and the fight against racism, by deconstructing the overlapping and mutually fuelling forms of patriarchal and racial domination. Moreover, recognising the specificities of each struggle does not imply establishing a hierarchy between them, by trying to determine which struggle is more important or legitimate than the others. Rather, it means adopting an inclusive approach that embraces the diversity of experiences and struggles, while recognising the links that unite them. In this way, the convergence of struggles and deconstructions makes it possible to build a movement of solidarity that can oppose systems of power and domination across the board, while respecting the particularities and specificities of each struggle.

In short, the convergence of struggles and deconstructions denounces any simplistic vision that would seek to reduce struggles to a single cause, while emphasising the importance of recognising the links between them. It is in this recognition of the specificities of each struggle and the interconnections between them that the real strength and potential of a collective fight for justice and emancipation lies.
