Keywords: Jacques Rancière; La haine de la démocratie; critique of democracy; democracy scandal; democracy - democracies;

Summary/Abstract: Following the form and substance content of any encyclopedic endeavor (a first formulation already anticipating the item dedicated to Jacques Rancière in The Encyclopedia of the Fundamental Political Philosophy Works – a fundamental project of the Institute of Political Sciences and International Relations “Ion I. Brătianu”, Romanian Academy, Bucharest, Romania – a project which will be finished in 2017 – the present study follows the method of Rancierian dissension in order to point out, in close proximity to the La haine de la démocratie text, the state of democracy. Within the influx of works, studies and commentaries regarding the fate of democracy, any focusing upon Rancière’s perspective would consist in a way of avoiding the categorization or theorization of democratic crises, considering that political metaphors still have politically adequate instruments for denominating “the actual state of democracy”.
