Kari Palonen The Struggle with Time A Conceptual History of 'Politics' as an Activity Reihe: Politische Theorie Bd. 3, 2006, 344 S., 29.90 EUR, br., ISBN 3-8258-9293-X The author presents in this volume a synthesis of his long-term studies on the conceptual history of politics. He offers a rhetorical history of the horizons of conceptualizing politics an activity in terms of nine topoi: irregularity, judgment, policy, deliberation, commitment, contestation, possibility, situation and play & game. He both constructs a schema for conceptualization of the spectrum of activities that are called politics and applies it to British, French and German debates on the concept since the nineteenth century. |
