Produktbeschreibung
Develops a theory of prefigurative democracy as a way of thinking critically about contemporary protest movements In the wake of protest movements, such as Occupy Wall Street and the Spanish 15-M, the past decade has seen an increased interest in prefigurative politics: the attempt of activists to realise or embody their ideal of a future society within their own movements and practices. Engaging with the concept and its history, this book establishes a radical democratic theory of prefiguration. Van de Sande builds on the work of political theorists as diverse as Hannah Arendt, Ernesto Laclau, Claude Lefort, Rosa Luxemburg and Judith Butler to reveal the radical and representative role of protest and social movements today. He gives various accounts of how prefigurative practices and movements may continue to have political relevance long after they have ended. Mathijs van de Sande is Assistant Professor of Political Philosophy at Radboud University Nijmegen
