Spectacle, political

Résumé

"The spectacular is inherent in political activity. Power is always “staged,” a “theatrocracy,” and a manipulation of images and symbols. While the idea that political power must make itself seen is well known, its use of spectacle is often delegitimized as it denotes an impoverishment of political participation. But it can also be a factor of politicization, an opportunity to expand the public space, or a tool for civil checks against power. Political spectacle hence appears as the place and the medium for a dialogue between social groups and between the state and the people in a democratic society."
