Inhalt: The hatred of democracy, as Jacques Ranciere reminds us, is as old as democracy itself: The word emerged in as an insult, decrying the illegitimate government of the unruly masses. Over millennia, democratic self-government was something people fought for, while others fought against it. In this seminar, we critically examine and engage with efforts to undermine, delegitimize, circumvent or destroy democratic ways of organizing social relations. We will deal with both theoretical and practical attacks on democracy, and learn about historical and current efforts to construct non-democratic forms of power.
