It traces his journey from his family roots to his role in the San Andres accords: from his renunciation of catholicism to his marxist militancy: from his years in government to his friendship with Ivan Illich and the creation of the Universidad de la tierra. history is told through personal narratives, critical reflections, dialouges, and theoretical insights. Combining biographical narrative with his critical interculturality, reflections on zapatismo, development, capitalism and ongoing grassroot insurrections, it weaves a tapestry of voices, dialogues, and theoretical insights.
