Immerse yourself in the world of fiction and political activism with 'Zapatista Stories' by Subcomandante Marcos. This collection of stories transports you to Mexico, exploring themes of struggle and resistance. With 192 pages in paperback format, this edition by Katabasis, translated by Dinah Livingstone and illustrated by Anne Mieke Lumsden, offers a unique perspective on the Zapatista movement and its impact on society.
Rafael Sebastián Guillén Vicente is a Mexican insurgent, the former military leader and spokesman for the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) in the ongoing Chiapas conflict, and a prominent anti-capitalist and anti-neoliberal. Widely known by his initial nom de guerre Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos, he has subsequently employed several other pseudonyms: he called himself Delegate Zero during the Other Campaign (2006–2007), Subcomandante Insurgente Galeano from May 2014 to October 2023, which he adopted in honor of his fallen comrade Jose Luis Solis Lopez, his nom de guerre being Galeano, aka "Teacher Galeano." and since October 2023, Capitán Insurgente Marcos. Marcos bears the title and rank of Capitán, and before that Subcomandante,, as opposed to Comandante, because he is under the command of the indigenous commanders who constitute the EZLN's Clandestine Revolutionary Indigenous Committee's General Command.
