Roundtable on Kaan Ağartan’s Gezi: The making of a new political community in Turkey
Unruly Theories
A Democratic Reckoning
“‘Defund’ has failed.” “It's a bad slogan. Most people don't support defunding the police.” “Who is the leader? The movement needs a Martin Luther King.” “The protests were so big but nothing was accomplished.” These are some of the skeptical questions, impatient dismissals, and anguished disappointments that I have often heard over the past two years (and more) from people taking stock of the Movement for Black Lives. While some of these retorts…
To Remake the World: Frantz Fanon and Martin Luther King Jr. on Self-Emancipation
Martin Luther King Jr. and Frantz Fanon are often conceived as offering incompatible political strategies for liberation from the structures of white supremacy and colonization. While in 1958 King contended that the choice was not between "violence and nonviolence, but between nonviolence and nonexistence," three years later Fanon would famously insist that "decolonization is always a violent event." This essay refuses this apparent opposition by…
Beyond (and Before) the Transnational Turn: Recovering Civil Disobedience as Decolonizing Praxis
Can civil disobedience be transnationalized? This question presumes civil disobedience to be a fundamentally domestic concept—one constitutively tied to both the nation-state and the normative underpinnings of liberal, constitutional democracies.

Seeing Like an Activist: Civil Disobedience and the Civil Rights Movement
There are few movements more firmly associated with civil disobedience than the civil rights movement. In the mainstream imagination, civil rights activists eschewed coercion, appealed to the majority’s principles, and submitted willingly to legal punishment in order to demand necessary legislative reforms—and facilitate the realization of core constitutional and democratic principles. Their fidelity to the spirit of the law, commitment to civili…
Civil disobedience, and what else? Making space for uncivil forms of resistance
Theorists of political obligation have long devoted special attention to civil disobedience, establishing its pride of place as an object of philosophical analysis, and as one of a short list of exceptions to an otherwise binding obligation to obey the law. Yet all of this attention to civil disobedience has left the broader terrain of resistance to injustice relatively under-theorized. What other forms of action are justifiable – even required –…
