Notes Toward a Performative Theory of Assembly

Judith Butler elucidates the dynamics of public assembly under prevailing economic and political conditions. Understanding assemblies as plural forms of performative action, she extends her theory of performativity to show why precarity destruction of the conditions of livability is a galvanizing force and theme in today's highly visible protests.

Judith Butler elucideaza dinamica adunarii publice in conditii economice si politice dominante. Intelegand ansamblurile ca forme plurale de actiune performativa, ea isi extinde teoria performativitatii pentru a arata de ce distrugerea precaritatii conditiilor de viabilitate este o forta si o tema de galvanizare in protestele extrem de vizibile de astazi.
