Frases célebres de Naomi Klein

“Es obvio que cuando se reflexiona sobre la concentración transnacional de poder -cuando se tiene que lidiar con instituciones como el Fondo Monetario Internacional, que trabajan en secreto-, la acción del movimiento antineoliberalismo o la de los piqueteros argentinos choca contra un muro. Pero es en ese momento que las cosas se ponen interesantes.”

Marzo de 2002, en Buenos Aires

“Los norteamericanos tienen miedo hoy y no están acostumbrados a tenerlo. Cuando esto sucede uno quiere creer en las figuras autoritarias y que esas figuras le devolverán la seguridad perdida. Esta es la clase de esquizofrenia que padece hoy Estados Unidos.”

Marzo de 2002, en Buenos Aires

“La gente no necesita liderazgos ideológicos o dogmáticos, necesita mecanismos y herramientas para resolver sus problemas.”

“Veo similitudes concretas y un paralelo interesante entre los piqueteros argentinos y el Comité de Crisis Eléctrica de Soweto en Sudáfrica. Allí se ven a electricistas y plomeros desempleados que reaccionan frente a los efectos de las privatizaciones que marginan a más gente de los servicios básicos de lo que lo hacía el sistema del apartheid.”

Marzo de 2002, Buenos Aires

“Al movimiento antiliberal le pasa lo que le pasa a la nueva protesta social en la Argentina; igual que aquí algunos creen estar en medio de una situación prerrevolucionaria y ven como su único objetivo crear crisis cada vez mayores sin ver que no ese ese el modo en que el cambio funciona o que si funciona así es un cambio muy superficial porque reproduce estructuras jerárquicas rígidas, centraliza el poder y vuelve a impedir el desarrollo de una democracia participativa.”

“No country offered more lucrative conditions than China: low taxes and tariffs, corruptible officials and, most of all, a plentiful low-wage workforce that, for many years, would be unwilling to risk demanding decent salaries or the most basic workplace protections for fear of the most violent reprisals.”

The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism (2007)

“Authoritarian Communism is, and should be, forever tainted by those real-world laboratories. But what of the contemporary crusade to liberate world markets? The coups, wars and slaughters to instill and maintain pro-corporate regimes have never been treated as capitalist crimes but have instead been written off as the excess of overzealous dictators, as hot fronts in the Cold War, and now of the War on Terror. If the most committed opponents of the corporatist economic model are systematically eliminated, whether in Argentina in the seventies or in Iraq today, that suppression is explained as part of the dirty fight against Communism or terrorism - almost never as the fight for the advancement of pure capitalism.”

“With the tentacles of branding reaching into every crevice of youth culture, leaching brand-image content not only out of street styles like hip-hop but psychological attitudes like ironic detachment, the cool hunt has had to go further afield to find unpilfered space and that left only one frontier: the past.”

No Logo: Taking Aim at the Brand Bullies 1999

“Culture jamming is enjoying a resurgence, in part because of technological advancements but also more pertinently, because of the good old rules of supply and demand. Something not far from the surfaces of the public psyche is delighted to see the icons of corporate power subverted and mocked. There is, in short, a market for it. With commercialism able to overpower the traditional authority of religion, politics and schools, corporations have emerged a the natural targets for all sorts of free-floating rage and rebellion. The new ethos that culture jamming taps into is go-for-the-corporate-jugular.”

Fuente: No Logo: Taking Aim at the Brand Bullies 1999, Chapter Twelve, "Culture Jamming"

“Not a day goes by that I don’t have a moment of sheer panic, raw terror, complete conviction that we are doomed, and then I do pull myself out of it. I’m renewed by this new generation that is so determined, so forceful. I’m inspired by the willingness to engage in electoral politics, because my generation, when we were in our 20s and 30s, there was so much suspicion around getting our hands dirty with electoral politics that we lost a lot of opportunities. What gives me the most hope right now is that we’ve finally got the vision for what we want instead, or at least the first rough draft of it. This is the first time this has happened in my lifetime.”

The Game-Changing Promise of a Green New Deal, The Intercept, https://theintercept.com/2018/11/27/green-new-deal-congress-climate-change/ (27 November 2018)

“Instead of rescuing the dirty industries of the last century, we should be boosting the clean ones that will lead us into safety in the coming century (Green New Deal). If there is one thing history teaches us, it's that moments of shock are profoundly volatile. We either lose a whole lot of ground, get fleeced by elites, and pay the price for decades, or we win progressive victories that seemed impossible just a few weeks earlier. This is no time to lose our nerve.”
