According to Ranci\u00e8re, democracy only really takes place when there is a break in the ‘distribution of the sensible’, when all people, even those previously not taken into account in society, so those outside of La Police, are included. Therefore, I agree with the statement. Because democracy can only occur in those moments, those ruptures of the distribution of the sensible. And if you think there can be too much of it, you just don’t believe in democracy, or in this case, in Ranci\u00e8re’s version of radical democracy. <\/p>\n
Introduction:
– refer back to assignment; explain quote
– present thesis statement outlining my argument<\/p>\n
– explain what happened in the brexit referendum<\/p>\n
– explain the political philosophy of Lib. Rep. Dem.
– make the connection between the author (of the quote)’s perspective, from the perspective of a UK citizen who believes in the LRD.<\/p>\n
– explain the political philosophical theory of Ranci\u00e8re and his radical demoracy
– include terms such as Le Partage du Sensible (the distribution of the sensible) and La Police.<\/p>\n
– use Wolin’s theories and include his explanations of ‘Inverted Totalitarianism’ and the ‘spectacle of politics’.
– explain how there can, in fact, be ‘too little’ democracy. this was the case during the referendum (and democracy in the UK in general), according to Wolin and Ranci\u00e8re and other radical democrats.<\/span><\/p>\n
– explain how, now that we know what Radical Democracy is for Ranci\u00e8re, there can never be too much democracy.<\/p>\n
