A Topological Reading of Ernesto Laclau

ISSN: 0353-4510
This work proposes a reading of Laclau's theory on populism using concepts from topology applied to dynamical systems. The analogical correspondences are established between the elements used in the reconstruction of a topological structure from data and categories such as discourse, hegemony, demand, empty and floating signifier, antagonism, and heterogeneity.
