Weaving Solidarity
In the Global South, Indigenous and Native people continue to live under colonial relations within formally independent nation-states. Sebastian Garbe offers a critical perspective on contemporary expressions of international solidarity and transnational advocacy. He combines approaches from critical race and decolonial studies with an activist ethnography on networked spaces of encounters created through solidarity activism by Mapuche and non-Mapuche actors. Departing from those experiences, this book not only presents potential pitfalls of transnational advocacy but suggests new ways of understanding and practicing solidarity.
Sebastian Garbe, born in 1986, works as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Applied Sciences Fulda, where he is the coordinator of the Fulda Graduate Centre of Social Sciences. He also works as a researcher and lecturer at the Institute of Sociology at the Justus-Liebig University in Giessen, where he completed his doctorate in 2020. His teaching and research were awarded with the Dr.-Herbert-Stolzenberg-Award for the Study of Culture in 2017 and 2020 and focuses on post- and decolonial theory as well as on protest and social movements.

Es motiviert, gängige Verständnis- und Wahrnehmungsformen von Solidarität zu hinterfragen.« Anja Habersang, Peripherie, 42/2 (2022) »This book is a novel engagement with the potentialities and pitfalls of international political solidarity across colonial differences.« Andrea Sempertegui, Alternautas, 9/1 (2022) Besprochen in: lateinamerika anders, 4 (2022), Erhard Stackl
