Heterogeneity of political discourse: three main formations
Keywords:
policy rationality, will, discourse, sense heterogeneity, theory, program, clusterAbstract
Vіncent Descombes’ conception of political rationality is subjected to analysis and critical revision in the paper. Four methodological restrictions of Descombes’ position have been distinguished: 1) subjectivization of political judgment; 2) reduction of political discourse to judgment format; 3) unaccount of supra-political nature of great social utopias (nazism, communism, liberalism); 4) idea of homogeneity of political discourse. As an antithesis, the author proposes and upholds the conception of heterogeneity of political discourse, in which he distinguishes three essentially different sense formations: theoretical, practical, and event discourses. He also point out their basic forms which are the theory, program, and cluster, respectively.
