The essay, starting from the J-F. Lyotard's logic of postmodernity and paradox, advocates for the ability of non-western democratic experiences to ensure institutional order in revolutionary contexts. From a diachronic comparison of Naxalite revolutionary movements in India and Maoists in Nepal, the article states that debates about political and revolutionary violence in a democracy is not a logical contradiction, but a case of "Institutional Tragic Optimism".

Abstract
The essay, starting from the J-F. Lyotard's logic of postmodernity and paradox, advocates for the ability of non-western democratic experiences to ensure institutional order in revolutionary contexts. From a diachronic comparison of Naxalite revolutionary movements in India and Maoists in Nepal, the article states that debates about political and revolutionary violence in a democracy is not a logical contradiction, but a case of "Institutional Tragic Optimism".File in questo prodotto:
