Ya Basta Association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ya Basta Association was a loose network of Italian anti-capitalist and pro-immigrants rights organizations and groups, fueled by the Italian social center movement, active between 1994 and 2001, and known for the "authorship" of the Tute Bianche, and later disobbedienti phenomena.
Formed as a result of the "eros effect" of the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas in 1994, the Ya Basta Association is sometimes confused with its corresponding tactical project, the Tute Bianche. However these two projects are distinct in that while the Ya Basta Association is an over-arching project involving many facets, including the utilization of the "white overall" tactic, the Tute Bianche was a broader tactic involving, at the time of Genoa 2001, many participants unconnected with the Italian Association.
