On the one hand, new satires advance a set of post- structural concerns with the mediatization of politics and the loss of a coherent subject. On the other hand, the apparent return of reactionary subjects of race, gender and sexuality suggests that irony plays an important role in the accommodation (recuperation?) of significant political dilemmas. This dilemma yields an important perspective on the emerging social democratic consensus over globalization.","PeriodicalId":261616,"journal":{"name":"The Ironic State","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127824566","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}

Here comedy takes on an avowed sense of political identity, questioning social attitudes and orienting against neoliberalism.","PeriodicalId":261616,"journal":{"name":"The Ironic State","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129358545","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}
