Recenzje

?Jacques Ranciere?s work is renowned, as he once put it, for ?leaving the noisy stage of political claims and doctrines and sinking into the depths of the social?. But at the same time, he firmly rejects the simplistic oppositions to which so many thinkers fall prey ? overthrowing institutions versus pre-figurative practice, art versus everyday life. In this lively discussion with Eric Hazan, Ranciere displays once again the power of his subtle form of social and philosophical analysis, illuminating some of the central questions of democracy, representation and political strategy that confront us today.?Peter Dews, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, School of Philosophy and Art History, University of Essex
