A propos de cet article

Hardcover. Creating Democracy brings into dialogue for the first time two important theorists of democracy: Hannah Arendt (190675) and Mikhail Bakhtin (1895975). Their shared conception of democracy stemming from their encounters with totalitarian governments Nazi Germany for Arendt and Stalinist Russia for Bakhtin and the rise of authoritarian populism in both Europe and America make their ideas more relevant than ever.Charles Hersch contends that Arendt and Bakhtin have a unique vision of democracy that centers on creation and creativity. These two thinkers imagine a world that both makes room for the cultivation and expression of each persons individuality and facilitates healthy interdependence, one that does not reduce us to sameness. They also describe the many threats to such a humanistic world, whether ideological, social, or political.Creating Democracy also makes a unique contribution to debates in political theory about the possibility of freedom in modern society. Offering an alternative to poststructuralism and liberalism, Arendt and Bakhtin show us how, in a variety of complex ways, subjects who are influenced by their culture, especially by the language in which they speak and think, can nonetheless help construct themselves and the world. For both thinkers, humans are meaning-making beings who shape the world, primarily through language, even as it shapes us. This book brings to light a rich vision of democracy that is sorely needed in a time when authoritarianism threatens us more than it has in decades. Students and scholars in political science, cultural studies, and literature will all find this book indispensable. Creating Democracy brings into dialogue two important theorists of democracy: Hannah Arendt and Mikhail Bakhtin. This book makes a unique contribution to political theory, the possibility of freedom in modern society, and explores a vision of democracy that is sorely needed in a time threatened by authoritarianism.
