Cultura e política: entre a potência da performance, os riscos da estetização e o esquecimento das diferenças de classe

Abstract

This text corresponds to the transcription of the presentantion given at the seminar promoted by the journals of the law school (Evento Unificado das Revistas em comemoração aos 125 anos da Revista da Faculdade de Direito da UFMG), at the invitation of REVICE – Revista de Ciências do Estado. REVICE participated in the event with a panel on the theme of its current dossier: Estado e (Contra)Cultura, a panel composed by me and professor José Luiz Quadros de Magalhães. The speech transcript was revised, with notes, citations and references, but the general tone was not substantially altered. I thank Giulia Athayde, Julia Freitas and Marina Moura for their assistance in the review task.
