communities of opposition  

Définition(s)

  • In every society and every social order, in every recorded epoch, a small but determined number of individuals have been dedicated to effecting social change. Given time and opportunity, these individuals seek out others of like mind, and, in the exchange of oppositional ideas, hopes, and dreams, communities of opposition—defined here as collectivities characterized by a shared ideology or theology, a sense of common destiny, and a commonly held dream for a future historical or posthistorical global order—emerge to challenge the existing temporal powers.
