Public Event

Thirty Years of Political Theory and the Displacement of Politics
A Symposium with Bonnie Honig -
January 20th 2023 - Auditorium Grimm Zentrum

Please join us for an afternoon of talks and discussion to mark the 30th anniversary of Political Theory and the Displacement of Politics. In this sea-change publication, Bonnie Honig argued in favor of political theories that allowed for contestation and contingency – that is, for politics as a haphazard human endeavor. Thirty years later, prof. Bonnie Honig joins us to look back upon its claims and its enduring relevance for contemporary issues, and to discuss her current research on feminist refusal.
