The working class in Italy had lost faith in capitalism and the authoritarian form it had taken under Fascism. Fast forward to the third decade of the twenty-ﬁrst century and the world seems to be in a similar interregnum in which political classes and parties have lost legitimacy, but where the path forward is unclear. Globally, over the last few decades, we have seen the growth of a particularly predatory form of capitalism that exhibits many “morbid symptoms”. These symptoms, some relatively new and others resurgent, include, among others, authoritarian politics, ethnic and racial nationalisms, polarization and hyper-partisanship; resurgent patriarchy, religious fundamentalism, growing inequality, the ﬁnancialization of capital, algorithmic control, the privatization of the public sector, climate denial, and growing social surveillance and disinformation. And all of these have been exacerbated by the spread of the Coronavirus and the economic and social disruptions it has caused and continues to cause.  \nBut this current interregnum is not only characterized by the morbid symptoms we have elaborated here. It is also ﬁlled with the potential to usher in a new post-capitalist world (Mason, 2016; Moreno, 2021; Gibson-Graham, 2011), which does not necessarily require the projection of a utopia that has yet to be imagined. Spaces that preﬁgure a post-capitalist world are all around us if we know where to look. In this book, Creating Third Spaces of Learning for Post-Capitalism: Lessons from Educators, Artists andActivists we seek to explore counter-hegemonic social spaces, or what some call third spaces (Anzaldua, 1987/2021; Bhabha, 1994/2002; Soja, 1996) that have been created largely by social, community and artistic activists to preﬁgure a post-capitalist, multi-racial democracy. These spaces tend to be democratic, grounded in communities, and challenge the hegemony of current forms of economic, political, cultural, and educational domination. Sousa Santos (2018), referring to such spaces as epistemologies of the South, argues that these spaces are emerging both within formal institutions and outside of them.  \nBuilding on these theorists, we understand third space to be a contingent, in-between location (ﬁguratively and otherwise) that challenges binary and hegemonic forms of thinking. If ﬁrst space represents our cultural identities and everyday lives (which are not static) and second space represents the hegemony of the dominant (or colonial) forces that attempt to deﬁne us, then the third space is a hybrid space in which to explore issues of domination, power, and emancipation. Since these are processes that are never ﬁxed, but rather always in process, ﬂuid, and inﬂected by history, third space is both a concept anda methodology that is committed to social justice and coalition politics as an alternative  \n© 2023, Spreen.
