englischUntil now, the visual depiction of political rule has been characterised by portrayals of power and unity, and research has focused on these representations of political identity as opposed to representations of difference in politics, which are often especially productive. In democracies in particular, the free expression of otherness, variety and diversity is essential for integration, communication and political stabilisation. Criticism and renewal of democratic orders therefore also occur in public discussions, which are imbued with symbolism, on the two principal dimensions of political representation: identity and difference.

This book thus focuses on the different dimensions of juxtaposing, extending and contesting the representation of collective identities. The motifs, campaigns and materials it examines range from the iconography of architecture for the working class and in capital cities, obelisks, street art and naturalisation ceremonies to symbols such as the constitution, transparency and the circle.
