Bonnie Honig invigorates debate over the politics of refusal by insisting that withdrawal from unjust political systems be matched with collective action to change them. Historical and fictional characters from Muhammad Ali to the Bacchants of ancient Greek tragedy teach us how to turn rejection into transformative efforts toward self-governance.
Introduction: The Bacchae's arc of refusal and the tragedy of the city -- Inoperativity and the power of assembly (Agamben with Butler) -- Inclination and the work of dis?/?orientation (Cavarero with Ahmed) -- Fabulation and the right to the city (Hartman with Arendt) -- Conclusion: Sister is an anagram for resist.
