Description

We are told that we live in a `post-ideological’ era; that we have moved `beyond Left and Right’; and that we are `all in it together’. Democracy has been reduced to the consensual administration of economic necessity. How can we make sense of this form of depoliticisation? How does it manifest itself in different spheres of social life? And in what ways is it being challenged or subverted? Contributors to this volume respond to these questions through a wide-ranging critical engagement with the concept of the post-political developed by Chantal Mouffe, Jacques Rancière, Slavoj Žižek, Alain Badiou and others.
