If you have a question about this talk, please contact Susannah Lacon.

My presentation will examine the following question: How should those whose aim is to foster a radical democratic project envisage the public space. After having introduced the theoretical framework that informs my argument and delineated the main points of my agonistic approach, I will distinguish my understanding of agonism from the one of Hannah Arendt. I will end by drawing some consequences of the different agonistic approaches for feminist politics.
