Jacques Rancière: An Introduction offers the first comprehensive introduction to the thought of one of today's most important and influential theorists. Joseph Tanke situates Rancière's distinctive approach against the backdrop of Continental philosophy and extends his insights into current discussions of art and politics. Tanke explains how Rancière's ideas allow us to understand art as having a deeper social role than is customarily assigned to it, as well as how political opposition can be revitalized. The book presents Rancière's body of work as a coherent whole, tracing key

Nascido em Argel em 1940, formado nos anos 1960, em Paris, e aposentado como professor emérito da Universidade de Paris VIII, Jacques Rancière é dos mais importantes filósofos da atualidade. Publicou variados trabalhos, entre os quais: O Desentendimento - Política e Filosofia, A partilha do Sensível, A Noite dos Proletários, Políticas da Escrita, O destino das Imagens, A Fábula Cinematográfica. O livro que referencia a presente resenha denomina-se O Ódio à Democracia. Foi publicado em 2005, na França e lançado no Brasil, em 2014, pela Boitempo Editorial. Como é do seu feitio, Rancière traz ao debate público, de forma densa e tensionada, nesse trabalho, o tema da democracia, fazendo um circuito letrado pela história da filosofia política. Nesse circuito ilustrado, apresentam-se vivamente autores de diferentes épocas que trazem respeitáveis contribuições para a reflexão sobre a democracia, entre os quais se destacam: Platão, Aristóteles, Rousseau, Maquiavel, Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, Hannah Arendt, Benjamin Constant, Michel Crozier, Samuel Huntington, Pierre Rosanvallon, John Adams, Jean-Claude Milner, François Furet, Claude Lefort, Alfred Fouillée, Jules Ferry. Nas 125 páginas do texto, Rancière recupera, com maestria, a indisposição que a democracia provoca naqueles que, independentemente do tempo e do lugar de nascimento, consideram-se titulares do poder de outorgar vida e morte ao restante dos mortais. Congrega esse debate nos quatro capítulos centrais do livro, assim, nomeados: Da democracia vitoriosa à democracia criminosa; A política ou o pastor perdido; Democracia, república, representação e As razões do ódio.

Over the past 40 years, Jacques Rancière's work has defined itself through a remarkable set of philosophical differences in relation to other key figures working in the fields of politics, philosophy and aesthetics. There have been significant philosophical, theoretical and aesthetic disagreements with influential figures in contemporary thought, including Althusser, Bourdieu, Derrida, Agamben, Deleuze, Foucault, Habermas and Badiou. Through these differences Rancière has emerged as one of the world's leading contemporary theorists. Whilst Rancière has long been a well-known force in francopho
