In times of emergency, the public realm becomes the battleground of ideas. Lessons from the Spanish Revolution for Lisbon´s Climate Activist Movements

Abstract

(Submission for "Public Space Module", Paulo Tormenta Pinto. June 11th 2019 - End of Year 1 of PhD programme) On June 7th 2019 Portugal’s Parliament declared “Climate Emergency”, following the example set by the UK and Irish governments in recent weeks. This comes after the beginning of the sharp upsurge in two intertwined global Climate activism movements; School Strike for Climate (S4C), inspired by the actions of Greta Thunberg, a 16 year old Swedish girl with Autism, and the UK based “Extinction Rebellion” (XR). S4C led two days of global student strikes on March 15th and May 24th, which saw about 7,000 people take to Lisbon´s streets on each occasion. From April 15th to 22nd there was the XR week of Rebellion, this saw thousands of concerned citizens taking over public spaces in London and holding them for the week using various forms of Non Violent Direct Action (NVDA). Similar actions happened to a lesser extent in other locations around the planet. Over 1000 people were arrested in London, but the action successfully shifted public opinion to support XR´s 1st of 3 demands; that the government “tell the truth” and declare Climate Emergency. XR´s 2nd demand is that the “Government must act now to halt biodiversity loss and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2025” and their 3rd and final demand calls for the creation of a ”Citizens’ Assembly on climate and ecological justice”. Based on the author´s ongoing Participatory Action Research (PAR) approach with groups currently active in Lisbon, this paper offers perspectives about how a Citizens’ Assembly could be implemented by sharing insights from recent related activities in Spain, including the author’s experiences in Barcelona in 2011, where the public realm was occupied to facilitate Citizen-Led change. This was followed by successful municipal elections wins for these movements in 2015, bold Spanish lessons might assist current Lisbon struggles.
