	Disagreement: Politics and Philosophy
		In Disagreement, Ranciere explores the apparent contradiction between these terms and reveals the uneasy meaning of their union in the phrase "political philosophy"—a juncture related to age-old attempts in philosophy to answer Plato's devaluing of politics as a "democratic egalitarian" process.
		Ranciere then distinguishes what we mean by "democracy" from the practices of a consensual system in order to unravel the ramifications of the fashionable phrase "the end of politics." His conclusions will be of interest to readers concerned with political questions from the broadest to the most specific and local.
		Jacques Ranciere is professor of aesthetics at the University of Paris VIII (St.-Denis).

	Eurozine - On Jacques Rancière - Luka Arsenjuk
		Jacques Rancière opposes a type of politics that makes decisions on the people, for the people, instead of the people; a politics that holds that in the political order, all sections of the community have been assigned their proper place.
		In order to situate Jacques Rancière's thought, which moves within the intersections of philosophy, politics and aesthetics, let us rely on his own words.
		In an interview with Davide Panagia, Rancière describes his break from the work within the circle around Louis Althusser (Rancière was one of the co-authors of the famous Lire le Capital in 1965) in terms of a shift away from a hermeneutic reading of texts towards a more affirmative view of language.

	Radical Philosophy - Interviews - March/April 1997
		Jacques Ranciere first came to prominence as one of the co-authors, with Louis Althusser, of the original two-volume edition of Lire le Capital (1965), to which he contributed an essay on Marx's 1844 Manuscripts (trans.
		This break, at once political and theoretical, was focused on what Ranciere has described as `the historical and philosophical relations between knowledge and the masses'.
		More recently, since 1989 Rancieère has broadened his canvas to engage the constitution of `the political' within the Western tradition (Aux bords du politique, 1990; trans.

	The Flesh of Words: The Politics of Writing - Jacques Rancière Translated by Charlotte Mandell (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Jacques Rancière is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris VIII.
		Both witty and immensely erudite, Jacques Rancière leads the critical reader through a maze of arrivals toward the moment, perhaps always suspended, when the word finds its flesh.
		That is what he, a valiant and good-humored companion to these texts, goes questing for through seven essays examining a wide variety of familiar and unfamiliar works.

	Interactivist Info Exchange \| Jacques Rancière, "Who is the Subject of the Rights of Man?" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		I think that we had rather leave the ontological destiny of the human animal aside if we want to understand who is the subject of the Rights of Man and to rethink politics today, even if out of its very lack.
		Jacques Rancière teaches philosophy at the University of Paris VIII.
		This essay was originally presented as a paper within the auspices of the Oxford Lectures on the Rights of Man, organized in 1993 by Amnesty International.

	Long Sunday: (democratic?) multitudes good and bad
		On Ranciere, as I understand him democracy is not the same as really-existing democracies or any regime of democracy (just as emancipatory education is not compatible with an institution of schooling).
		My take is that for Ranciere democracy is just the name for the moments when the excluded challenge their exclusion, for whatever reason and in whatever mode - the kratos of the demos, qua part of no part.
		I think it's a play on words and he could pick another name without much loss, but that whatever he named it would still be that which is essential to politics as such as he understands it.

	The Difference Site
		In the political realm, equality becomes a matter of receiving equal shares of whatever social goods are being distributed, while difference is either a matter of promoting inequality or allowing for disparate forms of expression.
		Jacques Ranciere has offered another way to think about equality, however, one that aligns it more with difference than with sameness or identity.
		Whereas the given status quo (what Ranciere calls the “police” order) seeks to form a consensus in which people are allotted particular roles, politics subverts this consensus in the name of equality.

	From Aesthetics to Politics: Rancière, Kant and Deleuze
		Jacques Rancière argues that what is at stake in politics, just as it is in aesthetics, is the distribution of the sensible, and that politics happens not only through the disruption of a certain aesthetic organization of sense experience but through the eruption of a distinct aesthetics.
		Jacques Rancière's Dis-agreement, as Rancière writes in his subsequent work, The Politics of Aesthetics, explores "the distribution of the sensible at stake in any politics".

	Cabinet Magazine Online - Hierglyphs of the Future: Jacques Rancière and the Aesthetics of Quality
		The slogan appeared at the demonstrations of the French jobless movement in the mid-90s in journals, on banners, and on tracts printed by the political art group, Ne pas plier.
		A way to grasp the aesthetic language of the French social movements in the 90s—and of the transnational movements now emerging—is through the work of Jacques Rancière and his writings on the politics of equality.
		Throughout this text I will quote and summarize ideas by Jacques Rancière, but the contemporary examples of political and æsthetic practice, and the conclusions drawn from them, are my responsibility alone.

		French philosophers go in an out of fashion as frequently as knock-off, Brooklyn rock and roll bands with one noun names; that is, of course, depending on the circle you run with.
		The current theory superstars to these eyes are Alain Badiou and Jacques Rancière (not to mention, of course, the academic rock stars par excellence, Slavoj Žižek and Jean Baudrillard).
		The considerable excitement surrounding Badiou is no doubt due in part to his controversial claim that ontology is, at root, a question of mathematics.

	Jacques Rancière - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Under Althusser, Rancière contributed to the influential volume Reading "Capital" (though his contribution is not contained in the partial English translation) before publicly breaking with Althusser over his attitude toward the May 1968 student uprising in Paris.
		Since then, Ranciere has departed from the path set by his teacher and published a series of works probing the concepts that make up our understanding of political discourse.

		His most recent book in English is Disagreement: Politics and Philosophy.
		He argues convincingly that “the people” have no proper signification in the texts under consideration, instead, they function as points of reality upon which the voyager can drape a conceptual framework shaped by the circumstances not of the other, but of the self.
