    3 to 5pm. "The end and its means". Workshop-tour­na­ment around Guy Debord’s Game of War, by Emmanuel Guy, author of Le jeu de la guerre de Guy Debord, L’émancipation comme projet, Éditions B42 (2020)


    Emmanuel Guy, Le jeu de la guerre de Guy Debord, L’émancipation comme projet, Paris, Éditions B42, 2020

    In the 1950s, film­maker, poet, the­o­rist and rev­o­lu­tionary Guy Debord (1931-1994) imag­ined the Game of War, a board game which con­sisted of a gridded board and var­ious pieces rep­re­senting the dif­ferent units of an army. He played the game throughout his life and con­sid­ered it as a tool of strategic eman­ci­pa­tion – to be played by those looking for means to struggle against organ­ised pas­sivity. 
    This work­shop, open to all, is an intro­duc­tion to the Game of War  through making and prac­tice. 

    Emmanuel Guy is an art and design his­to­rian and a pro­fessor. He’s also a member of the pro­duc­tion and exhi­bi­tion col­lec­tive Treize (Paris) and a mil­i­tant for the rights of migrant people with BAAM (Bureau d’accueil et d’accom­pa­g­ne­ment des migrant·e·s). 

    6 to 7pm. Conflict is not abuse. Interview and debate between Sarah Schulman (online) and trans­la­tors Julia Burtin Zortea and Joséphine Gross


    Sarah Schulman, Le con­flit n’est pas une agres­sion, Paris, Éditions B42, 2021

    On the occa­sion of the pub­li­ca­tion of her book Le con­flit n’est pas une agres­sion [Conflict Is Not Abuse; Overstating Harm, Community Responsibility, and the Duty of Repair] by Éditions B42, Sarah Schulman will engage a dis­cus­sion with the trans­la­tors Julia Burtin Zortea and Joséphine Gross. This con­ver­sa­tion will be an oppor­tu­nity for the author to explain the dis­tinc­tion between con­flict and aggres­sion, and will offer an insight into the con­tem­po­rary and his­tor­ical dynamics that con­sider inti­mate, racial and geopo­lit­ical dif­fer­ences as trig­gers of a path leading to injus­tice, exclu­sion and repres­sion.

    Sarah Schulman is a nov­elist, play­wright and a human rights and LGBT activist.
    Currently tenured pro­fessor at City University of New York, she was a member of ACT UP New York and founded in 2001 “ACT UP Oral History Project”, which aimed at col­lecting and archiving the tes­ti­monies of people who took part in the struggle against the AIDS pan­demic in the United States during the 80s and 90s. She was also involved in the Palestine sol­i­darity move­ment and is a member of the activist orga­ni­za­tion Jewish Voice for Peace. She is the author of numerous books pub­lished in the United States, including two novels that were trans­lated into French, Après Delores [After Delores] pub­lished by Incultes, and Rat Bohemia, pub­lished by H&O. Her essay La Gentrification des esprits [The Gentrification of the Mind: Witness to a Lost Imagination] was pub­lished by Éditions B42 in 2018.

    Julia Burtin Zortea is an author and trans­lator, and a member of the fem­i­nist journal Panthère Première, spe­cial­ized in social crit­i­cism, after having col­lab­o­rated with sev­eral inde­pen­dent news­pa­pers and jour­nals.
