A set of strategies and actions based both on the reclamation of ‘public’ space, and the creation ‘new’ space that resists commodification and power. ‘Space’ activism range from the simple occupation of unclaimed public or private space for shelter (squats), to the reclamation or property for social and political usage (social centres), to the very redefinition of community (communes). Zones, differ from spaces in that they tend to be less permanent, and they tend to be more elusive and subversive rather than open or confrontational. Following from Hakim Bey and his very influential tract Temporary Autonomous Zones (TAZ), zones look for ‘psychical’ openings in within the coded space of mainstream capitalist society.
