'Presentist democracy is without a people and without nation.
Rather than regimes of borders and migration, its borders are
sexism and racism, homo- and transphobia, colonialism and
extractivism.' In the midst of the crises and threats to liberal
democracy, Isabell Lorey develops a democracy in the present tense;
one which breaks open political certainties and linear concepts of
progress and growth. Her queer feminist political theory formulates
a fundamental critique of masculinist concepts of the people,
representation, institutions, and the multitude. In doing so, she
unfolds an original concept of a presentist democracy based on care
and interrelatedness, on the irreducibility of responsibilities-one
which cannot be conceived of without social movements' past
struggles and current practices.
