Jodi Dean challenges the traditional focus on individuals and multitudes, advocating for a reimagining of the collective subject of politics. When crowds emerge in unauthorized spaces, such as in the Occupy movement in New York, London, and across the globe, they create a gap of possibility. However, many on the Left remain confined to this moment of promise, advocating for more of the same, further fragmenting issues and identities, and replaying the last thirty years of left-wing defeat. In Crowds and Party, Dean argues that previous discussions of the party have overlooked its affective dimensions, emphasizing how it functions as a knot of unconscious processes that binds people together. Dean demonstrates how we can perceive the party as an organization capable of reinvigorating political practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrowds and Party harnesses the fervent energies of the riotous crowds that have taken to the streets in the past five years, transforming them into a powerful argument for a political party.
