  • The blue note of democracy
    Vodovnik, Žiga
    The article starts from the assumption that old criteria for analysing the state and perspectives of democracy e.g. sovereign state, party pluralism, elections, representation, national identity, ... market economy etc.are wholly obsolete categories that no longer have any connection to the current dynamics of democratic innovations. For these reasons, the article appropriates the jazz idiom as a convenient metaphor and discourse to highlight epistemological and methodological challenges entailed in understanding democracy. In the last part, the article indicates deeper and substantial affinities between democracy and jazz that are useful for clarifying the democratic unruliness that is often missing in current discussions on democracy. The article concludes that an entirely new approach to democracy is required, building on a new grammar, metaphors and methods.
