The growing exploration of political life from an aesthetic
perspective has become so prominent that we must now speak of an
"aesthetic turn" in political thought. But what does it mean and
what makes it an "aesthetic" turn? Why now? This diverse and
path-breaking collection of essays answers these questions,
provoking new ways to think about the possibilities and debilities
of democratic politics.Beginning from the premise that politics is
"already ""aesthetic in principle," the contributions to "The
Aesthetic Turn in Political Thought" from some of the world's
leading political theorists and philosophers, disclose a distinct
set of political problems" the aesthetic problems of modern
politics." The aesthetic turn in political thought not only
recognizes that these problems are different in kind from the
standard problems of politics, it also recognizes that they call
for a different kind of theorizing - a theorizing that is itself
aesthetic.A major contribution to contemporary theoretical debates,
"The Aesthetic Turn in Political Thought" will be essential reading
to anyone interested in the interdisciplinary crossroads of
aesthetic and politics.
