By addressing again the concept of representation from its political dimension, this text aims to move forward upon the reflections made by
Hasso Hofmann in his celebrated book on that subject. The purpose of that is no other than to focus on the intrinsic aporiae of representation, in order to be able to examine then the ways in which politics could be thought, through a modality that differs radically from that of the formal rationality that characterizes the modern political forms, crystallized in the dyad sovereignty-representation. In that sense, this essay doesn’t outline itself simply as a theoretical and hypothetical exercise, but as a necessary job in order to think the reality in which we live, a reality that the normative and legitimizing concepts of the constitutional chart prevent us from its understanding.
