Please visit our website at www.dukeupress.edu The fi rst English-language biography of the famous Zapatista rebel leader Subcommander Marcos The Man and the Mask Nick Henck is Visiting NICK HENCK Associate Professor in the Faculty of Law at Keio University in Japan. Subcommander Marcos made his debut on the world stage on January 1, 1994, the day the North American Free Trade Agreement took effect. At dawn, from a town hall balcony he announced that the Zapatista Army of National Liberation had seized several towns in the Mexican state of Chiapas in rebellion against Photo by Yasuko Watanabe. the government; by sunset Marcos was on his way to becoming the most famous guerrilla leader since Che Guevara. Subsequently, through a succes- sion of interviews, communiqués, and public spectacles, the Subcommander emerged as a charismatic spokesperson for the indigenous Zapatista uprising and a rallying fi gure in the international anti-globalization movement. In this, the fi rst English-language biography of Subcommander Marcos, Nick Henck describes the thought, leadership, and personality of this charismatic rebel spokesperson. He traces Marcos’s development from his provincial middle-class upbringing through his academic career and immersion in the clandestine world of armed guerrillas to his emergence as Subcommander Marcos greeting American fi lm director Oliver the iconic Subcommander.

Henck fully explores Marcos’s astute use of the media, while at the same time emphasizing that just as important as the rebel leader’s media savvy is the fl exibility of his thought. He shows how Marcos’s speeches and extensive writ- ings demonstrate not only the Subcommander’s erudition but also his rejection of Marxist dogmatism. Finally, Henck contextualizes Marcos, locating him fi rmly within the Latin American guerrilla tradition. Subcommander Marcos disarming before negotiations, October 1996. Photo by Scott Sady.
