'''Chantal Mouffe''' ([[born ]] 1943 in Charleroi, Belgium) is a [[Belgian ]] [[political theorist]]. She is a Professor in the [[University ]] of Westminster and she co-authored ''[[Hegemony and Socialist Strategy]]'' with [[Ernesto Laclau]]. Their [[thoughts ]] are usually described as post-[[Marxist ]] as they were both politically [[active ]] in the [[social ]] and student movements of the 1960s and were thus active [[working ]] [[class ]] and new social movements (notably second-wave [[feminism]] in Mouffe's [[case]]). They rejected [[Marxism|Marxist]] [[economic determinism]] and the [[notion ]] of [[class struggle]] [[being ]] the single crucial [[antagonism]] in [[society]]. Instead they urged for radical [[democracy]] of [[agonistic pluralism]] where all [[antagonisms ]] could be expressed. In their opinion, "...there is no possibility of society without antagonism," which is why they claimed that "society does not [[exist]]."
