ABSTRACT
In our daily lives, we are constantly faced with visual and textual information related to politics, whether in national, international or transnational spaces (such as the complex new forum, a true laboratory, that is the European Parliament) or – although this is often forgotten – local spaces. That information contains agonistic representations of politics and political affairs, either because what is represented refers to a set of practices designed to achieve victory in some sense of the word or because these practices are anchored in specialised spaces of competition or simply because we are exposed to practices embedded in the operation of a differentiated field in which, après la lutte, some agents emerge as dominant and others as dominated.
