Abstract
Taking 'the art of politics' seriously means asserting
a more genuine relation between art and politics than we casually or usually suppose. In contemporary mass-mediatised societies, the concept of politics as prime-time spectacle, a carefully groomed contest between combative cult-personalities, is not new. Beyond that, however, it's possible to explore the notion that politics has an 'aesthetic' - or is an aesthetic practice - and that this matters.
