Abstract

The student revolt that erupted in Chile during 2011 challanged the political and symbolic order under whose cultural parameters the market economy became the hegemonic basis for the regulations of social relations. Following the conceptual contributions to queer studies made by Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari’s philosophical work, this essay attempts to theoretically reflect about the collective spaces of everyday autonomy and affectivity associated to the revolt that challenged the compulsory heterosexuality regime.
