This book offers reflections and applications of politics as an activity. It focuses on a selection of Kari Palonen's work over the last 15 years. It is linked to the complex world of parliaments from rhetorical and procedural perspectives, originally inspired by Max Weber and Quentin Skinner as well as by older books on British parliamentary rhetoric and procedural commentaries. The volume illustrates the methodology and the practices of both textual analysis and of using political imagination also in contexts, which do not immediately appear as political. It's divided into three sections, the first dealing with typical conceptualisations, the second analysing debates and texts in parliament and beyond, the third looking at politicisation in different levels and contexts, especially around the European Union.
Kari Palonen is Emeritus Professor at the University of Jyvaskyla, Finland. He was the co-founder of the History of Concepts Group (1998) and of the present journal Redescriptions. He is member of Academia Europea.
Kari Palonen has published extensively in English, German and Finnish on the concept of politics and its history, on the principles and practices of conceptual history, on the political thought of Max Weber and on the political theory, rhetoric and procedure of parliamentarism.
