It also makes some proposals for future scholarly work on adherence. The chapter addresses the three principal audiences of the book—social movement theorists, political theorists, and historians, especially of Britain—indicating the possibilities for future work and interdisciplinary conversations between them. It also considers the ambivalence of contemporary responses to adherence and argues that exploring this ambivalence in greater depth is a good direction for future work.","PeriodicalId":120562,"journal":{"name":"Other People's Struggles","volume":"484 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122180285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These involve loosening the obligation to be what one cannot be (intersectionality, chains of equivalence, translation); denying the impossibility of being what one cannot be (Judith Butler’s performativity); being it anyway (Slavoj Žižek’s unabashed approach); sharing incompleteness (Derridean approaches); and beginning from equality (Jacques Rancière). The chapter argues that that each response has its merits and will be attractive to some forms of social movement work, but none of them produces answers with which all movements can be content.","PeriodicalId":120562,"journal":{"name":"Other People's Struggles","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124326635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
