Mexico's Rebellious Afterlives: Armed Uprisings and Activism in the Narco War examines Mexican activists’ mobilizations against the state, capitalist, and criminal violence in the narco epoch.
Mexico's Rebellious Afterlives: Armed Uprisings and Activism in the Narco War examines nonviolent activism and armed uprisings in the narco war. Olof Kjell Oscar Ohlson argues that relatives of Mexico’s many victims of violence, often without earlier experiences of human rights advocacy, become activists protesting violence or form self-armed citizens’ police to resist state, capitalist, and criminal violence. Ohlson develops innovative theories on political afterlives and rituals of rebellion, demonstrating how political street protests transform over time to become annual commemorative events at new memorial sites for the disappeared.

Olof Kjell Oscar Ohlson is postdoctoral fellow at The Federal University of São Carlos.
