Subject: Laclau & Mouffe?


Chris Nagle mentioned two weeks ago Laclau and Mouffe's _Hegemony and 
Socialist Strategy_. Chris, what did you have in mind? Tell us! You wrote, 
that you are reconsidering...

(Word of "declaration": I finally got time to take a look at "Hegemony" 
and it seems ambiguously familiar. I don't remember when/if I've read 
it, and yet the first 100 pages... well, it was like remembering - 
obviously one professor told about it to us, the students in the 1980s. 
Anyway, I'm going to read it through as soon as possible and after that 
_New Reflections on the Revolution of Our Time_. I have to re-write & 
re-structure my lecture on 'contemporary trends in social theory' and it 
seems at the moment, that Laclau & Mouffe do have quite a lot to say on 
that theme, too. Surely "Hegemony" isn't out-of-date yet.)
