A conversation with Bonnie Honig

exploring agonistic humanism

Gary Browning

pp. 121-138

Gary Browning: Bonnie, we were very enthusiastic to secure an interview with you and to enable readers to find out about your intellectual development and current thinking, so many thanks for agreeing to this interview. Your approach to political theory is notable for its valorization of politics. Political Theory and the Displacement of Politics (1993) argues for the ongoing contestation of the rules and arrangements framing political activity and argues against theoretical ploys to reduce politics to underlying forms of communal consensus, law, or reason.Would you elaborate on why you take politics and contestation of the ground rules and principles to be of such significance?
