He calls for a refusal of politics, suggesting a form of apolitics that would make our lives more liveable.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe first chapter situates the refusal of politics in relation to different contemporary theoretical attempts to renew politics, and makes the case for a greater rupture. The second moment takes up what is liveable in life by way of apolitical experience, in contrast to appropriations of the collective, including a discussion of the arts. Finally, Laurent Dubreuil draws up an incomplete inventory of means, forms of existence - often frail and fleeting - that make an exit toward atopia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laurent Dubreuil\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474416756\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474416757\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.40h x 5.30w x 0.40d","brand":"Laurent Dubreuil","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935510790399,"sku":"9781474416757","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b516cb02-4d1e-44be-8626-73bb1ee51feb.jpg?v=1681420217","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-refusal-of-politics-laurent-dubreuil-9781474416757","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
