| contents | Demagogy and Social Pathology: Wendy Brown and Robert Pippin on the Pathologies of Neoliberal Subjectivity Tom Bunyard Historia Brown Hegel Pippin demagogy Foucault This essay argues that modern demagogy can be understood as a symptom of a kind of social pathology, combining Wendy Brown’s account of neoliberal subjectivity with elements of Robert Pippin’s interpretation of Hegel to do so. I begin by focussing on Brown’s contention that neoliberal society has bred forms of individual subjectivity that are inherently attuned to right-wing rhetoric. Drawing on Pippin’s reading of Hegel, the essay casts these modes of individual subjectivity as aspects of a flawed mode of collective subjectivity; the contemporary rise of demagogic politics is thereby presented as a symptom of a pathological failure of collective self-determinacy, caused by inadequacies within the normative structures that articulate social activity. 2019 artículo científico 1575-6823 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=28264997023 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/282/28264997023/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/282/28264997023/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/282/28264997023/28264997023.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/282/28264997023/movil https://doi.org/10.12795/araucaria.2019.i42.22 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=282 Araucaria.
