Can there be non-violent political action?
Abstract: The text argues for the irreducible violence of the abolition of violence. It aims to show that this is not a paradox, for violence means something else in both instances. We thus need to distinguish between violence and violence: we need a ‘critique of violence’ in the sense that Walter Benjamin has developed it (in his article with this title). The text will sketch a political reading of Benjamin’s distinction between mythic and divine violence by way of his example of education
