Abstract This actualization of Rousseau's concept of popular sovereignty provides a radical democratic alternative to the liberal transnational theory of democracy. Whereas the latter responds normatively to globalization with claims for individual rights and standards of good governance, the radical democratic political philosophy of Rousseau enables us to imagine the re-democratization of post national citizenship. Rousseau's radical philosophy is – against its conservative reception and against the legalistic discourse of the European Union – perfectly suited to overcoming the national form of subjectivization and gives us reasons to hope for more political participation and social equality. This is so because Rousseau conceptualizes radical democracy as an extensive claim for collective self-determination, which encompasses the mechanisms to (re)produce the collective.
