From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"In her book Laclau/Mouffe: The Radical Democratic Imaginary (1998), Anna Marie Smith acknowledges the heterogeneity and unpredictability of politics and reinforces the idea that Laclau and Mouffe's poststructuralist theory of hegemony can be read as a theory of intersectionality." -- Hegemony and Heteronormativity: Revisiting 'The Political' (2016) by María do Mar Castro Varela, Nikita Dhawan, Antke Engel |

Blurb:
Laclau and Mouffe: The Radical Democratic Imaginary is the first full-length overview of the important work of Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe. Anna Marie Smith clearly shows how Laclau and Mouffe's work has brought Gramscian, poststructuralist and psychoanalytic perspectives to revitalize traditional political theory. With clarity and insight, she shows how they have constructed a highly effective theory of identity formation and power relations that carefully draws from the criticism of political theory from postmodern anti-foundationalist political theory.
