Aesthetic Politics: study of aesthetic aspects of politics in Jacques Ranciere's thought

Abstract; Politics in Ranciere's theory is an attempt to portray it as an aesthetic mechanism. In this way, the politics is not using or trying to gain power, but it’s configuring a particular world. In this regard, Ranciere redefines the aesthetic nature of politics not as a singular single world, but as an incompatible world. A world that configures a new form of common sense and a new horizons of visibility which, by denying the hierarchy of representations between high and low issues, leads to the visibility of actions and practices that fall under the name of politics. In this regard, the present article attempts to answer the question: "How is the aesthetic dimension of politics in the thinking of Ranciere, based on what components and categories has the theoretical form?" According to our hypothesis, Ranciere, with the assumption of aesthetics, as the Kantian idea of "a priori sense of sensibility" - a matter of time and place - addresses politics within the framework of liberation from the distribution of the affairs. It is a matter of planning and revising the concepts of politics and aesthetics and passing their conventional meanings. In the following paper, after examining the aesthetic dimension of politics through the "proletarian nights" and the genealogy of the idea of "a priori sense of sensibility" in Kant's aesthetic, we will discuss the wide-ranging discussion of politics and its aesthetic aspects in Jacques Ranser's views.
