Abstract
The article explores the apolitical effects of direct democracy and new activism. According to the author, we do not live in a post-democratic era, but in a post-political one, an era of democracy without politics: what is missing from this political configuration is representation, the institutional mediation through which social demands are turned into public programmes. The article concludes with a defence of indirect democracy and its regulative and judicial authorities which balance the plebiscitary drift of current populism, thus activating the dimension of delegation which is necessary in politics.
