  1. On Wielding the Subversive Scalpel
    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    Published: 1970
    In subversion, we leave behind the interminable argument between the good bureaucrats & the bad ones. By subversion we do not mean, as in its common usage, “overthrowing the government” & replacing it with ourselves. We mean undermining the very addiction, the sick, junkie-like need, to govern or be governed at all. In the end / in the beginning, there are no leaders, no followers: there are only actors.
  2. The Situationists and the New Forms of Action Against Politics and Art
    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    Published: 1967
    Our task is to link up the theoretical critique of modern society with the critique of it in acts. By detourning the very propositions of the spectacle, we can directly reveal the implications of present and future revolts.
  3. Uruguay 1964-1970
    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    Published: 1995
    An account of American involvement in torture and counter-insurgency in Uruguay.
  4. A User's Guide to Détournement
    Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
    Published: 1956
    The French word détournement means deflection, diversion, rerouting, distortion, misuse, misappropriation, hijacking, or otherwise turning something aside from its normal course or purpose.
