Description
Summary:In the reply to his critics and interlocutors, Laclau clarifies his position regarding a series of concepts such as representation, fraternity (or democratic solidarity), identification, signification, affect, extimacy, spectacle and social sedimentation as they arise in or pertain to his theory of 'populism and populist reason'. In the process of those clarifications, Laclau also explains how his views differ from other relevant thinkers such as Hannah Pitkin (on 'representation'), Jurgen Habermas (on 'new social movements'), Guy Debord (on 'spectacle') and Jacques Lacan (on 'extimacy').
