In this text, first published in July of 2019 on thewebsite of the journal Invariance, French communist theorist Jacques Camatte retraces the techniques of separation that have divorced the human species from the natural world. For Camatte, it is this perilous detachment — and subsequent ‘wandering’ — that lies at the root of the pervasive enmity our species displays toward itself, toward its past, and toward nature as a whole. For those interested, several additional interviews, texts, and commentaries on Camatte can be found on Ill Will Editions.

France. The anti-squat amendment supported by the Government (Ministry of Housing) generalizing the administrative eviction (by decision of the prefect and without trial) of untitled occupants was adopted in the law committees of the National Assembly on Wednesday, September 16.

This place, empty for less than a year, owned by the Val-de-Marne, was a home and the headquarters of a company of land shareholders in the department. We chose to call it La Kunda (the community in Soninké).

Julien Coupat was one of the accused of the so-called “Tarnac” group. He is the author, along with others, of this text on “things seen” of May and August 2020.
What have we seen in the last six months, since the emergence of the virus, since the avalanche of transformations it has produced? How to prevent the weight of habit and the force of amnesia from accustoming us to what was then new, unthinkable, terrifying? While it undoubtedly calls for other observations, other records and other re-considerations, this text offers a journey through the times in order to avoid, with the passage of time, that the extraordinary molt into the ordinary and that the fearsome becomes legal.
