AB Joshua Clover outlines a theory of riots in his book Riot.Strike.Riot. Within the framework of this theory, he declares an end to the era of strikes and the beginning of the era of “Riot Prime.” This article argues against this by arguing, first, that the temporal and spatial sequence is not as clear as Clover implies and, second, that the hypothesis seems plausible only because Clover severely narrows the concept of strike while expanding the concept of riot. Finally, and with reference to the current feminist movement, the article formulates as a counter-hypothesis the assumption of a “feralization” of both types of resistance, of struggles both in the workplace and in the streets.
