Description

Political Alchemy examines politics as a transformative process where entities shift through identity alteration, revealing alchemical techniques embedded in major political phenomena including EU integration, mediatisation, communism and globalisation. This Routledge publication demonstrates how these alchemical methods have become increasingly prevalent and accelerated across contemporary political systems. The author traces the continuous growth of political power as it reaches permanent stages, sidestepping the traditional complexities tied to the emergence and dissolution of political institutions. By identifying transformation as a common thread across diverse political events, the book offers a fresh theoretical framework for understanding modern politics and the technological forces reshaping political identities and structures.

Key Features

The book examines continuous political power growth whilst avoiding traditional difficulties associated with institutional birth and death cycles.

Contemporary Liminality framework provides theoretical tools for understanding how entities undergo fundamental political and technological transformation.

Analysis spans multiple political contexts from communism to modern mediatisation, revealing widespread deployment of identity-shifting strategies.
