an excerpt: p. 45,

The easiest way to get our minds around it [= revolution] is to stop thinking qbout revolution as a thing─"the" revolution, the great cataclysmic break─and instead ask "what is revolutionary action?" We could then suggest: revolutionqry action is any collective action which rejects, and therefore confronts, some form of power or domination and in doing so, reconstitute social relations─even within the collectivity─in that right. Revolutionary action does not necessarily have to aim to topple government. Attempts to create autonomous communities in the face of power (using Castoriadis' definition here: ones that constitute themselves, collectively make their own rules or principles of operation, and continually reexamine them), would, for instance, be almost by definition revolutionary acts. And history shows us thqt the continual accumulation of such acts can change (almost) everything.
