ANGELAKI journal of the theoretical humanities volume 9 number 2 august 2004 I isolation consideration of the political has to start Awith a distinction between politics and the political. This distinction, here, is drawn in rela- tion to the place of the subject. Both politics and the political require a locus in which interaction between human beings occurs. Both terms re- quire that the subject is not isolated, but that it is placed in an area where there is contact with dimitris vardoulakis other subjects. The subject’s isolation, as the locus that resists or counters sociality, is crucial in identifying the subject of both the political THE CRITIQUE OF and of politics. Isolation puts the subject in a place devoid of other subjects. However, when LONELINESS subjectivity emerges as a crucial element of hu- man interchange, then subjective identity also towards the political leads to a differentiation between the realms of motives of the politics and the political. The two questions – “who is the political subject?” and “who is the doppelga ¨ nger subject of politics?” – receive, then, divergent answers.
