Informationen zum Autor Gabriel Rockhill and Philip Watts, eds. Klappentext "This timely collection of essays should finally jump-start the English-speaking conversation about the work of Jacques Ranciere, one of the most innovative political philosophers now writing. His method of equality, his contrast of a stable 'police' order with 'the political' as an interruption of that order by those invisible within it, and his idea that both politics and art involve modes of distributing/partitioning the sensible together form a unique constellation of radical political thinking."--J. M. Bernstein, New School for Social Research Zusammenfassung A collection that examines the work of cultural and political theorist Jacques Ranciere.
