This project responds to and expands upon Sheldon Wolin's magnum opus, "Politics and Vision." It critiques Wolin's unnecessarily fragile conception of democracy, as being by nature "ephemeral," and thus fundamentally non-institutional, by comparing it with the more pragmatic, realist approaches of two historical organizers, Saul Alinsky and V.I. Lenin. The project uses Wolin's insightful analysis of the state of American politics under late capitalism, to ask, "What is to be done?" exploring the possibilities of organizing and political realism for the Left in the current day.

Some people, we may call them realists, endorse the priority thesis. This thesis says political reasons (distinct from moral, prudential, aesthetic, economic, and other kinds of reason) have normative priority whenever we assess political situations. Any putative political reasons, I argue, must satisfy an autonomy condition and an identity condition. I argue that no realist account of political reasons shows such reasons are distinct and autonomous as of yet. One account, the practice-based account, may have the wherewithal to show political reasons are distinct. I also say some things about the relations between identity, autonomy, and priority.
