Tactical In/Visibility and Deterritorialization The Networked Practices of the Russian-Language Translation and Publishing Cooperative “Radical Theory and Praxis” A Conversation with Lora Timarova, host: Lina Dokuzović Audio to be released today, 17 April, at 18:00 CEST In this discussion, Lora Timarova of the translation and publishing cooperative Radical Theory and Praxis talks about how their practices both emerged and developed in relation to the state of the Left – initially founded in and anchored to Moscow, and mainly integrating Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus – to later expanding to create a large translocal network that spans far beyond the region. Consisting of a large number of conscientious objectors to the invasion of Ukraine who fled being drafted or people who fled the war itself or those who fled other forms of oppression, the diaspora and other groups and individuals acting in solidarity support the work of the cooperative. We discuss the importance and remaining popularity of the printed book in times when people search for a sense of unity and collectivity in a landscape of corrupt media and fractured relations. From their website www.rtpbooks.info: “By publishing books about the history of liberation movements, social and environmental initiatives, alternative economic models and political prisoners, we strive to inspire activists to new achievements and push our society towards social change.” https://transversal.at/audio/    transversal audio season will return on Wednesday, 8 May, with an episode on the Spanish independent publishing ecosystem.   These audios are part of the project 'Peripheral Visions', which is supported by the Creative Europe Programme (2021-27) of the European Union and co-funded by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Arts, Culture, Civil Service and Sport.
