영문 초록

Looking at recent assembles and mass protests, including the candlelight rallies over ex-president Park Geun-hye’s impeachment in the streets of Seoul, Korea, this paper aims to examine the performative ways assembling bodies claim rights and the roles of democratic assemblies in the making of a new collective, plural and relational subjectivity. I mainly refer to Judith Butler s recent books and articles for the development of my opinion. For this purpose, I investigate the roles precarity plays in various assembles and contemporary forms of economic abandonment that follow from the differential distribution of precarity. Then, after showing what separates the democratic assemblies of bodies from the U.S Tea Party crowds or Korean Taegeukgi Rally composed of far-right groups, I try to show lives and bodies are interconnected to one another and how bodily acts become performative. Finally, rethinking the bodily dimensions of the “becoming-collective-subjectivity,” I suggest the significance of assembly as performative and relational subjects in alliance in which people are “exercising a right to appear” and open up time and space outside and against the established regime.
