In its winter issue of 2019, the anarchist review Existence has set out for Mexico. We are remembering the 25th anniversary of the Zapatista uprising. However, this is not a historic topic as was the case with the previous issues dealing with the Russian revolution of 1917 and the turbulent year of 1968. The Zapatista movement certainly hasn’t been defeated, even though the rulers in Mexico have been definitely trying hard. Therefore, we dedicate this issue to a living movement which has experienced a dramatic development and whose inner vigor is far from slackening off. Furthermore, it promotes principles that anarchists generally see as their own or that are very close to their own views.
