The Dark Side of the Multitude

The impossibility of representing the multitude, calls for a reflection on the inadequacy of the approach to the political as an autonomous realm of thought and action. We aim to look at how the limits of the current conception of democracy and representability operate within contemporary modes of political intervention and to explore the potential and unwritten power of forms of dissent, refusal and disobedience that escape capture in the prevailing politics of democracy, mediation and recognition.
