摘要：

This article considers, against the background of an extended discussion of Claude Lefort's conception of the birth and specificity of 'the political' (le politique), the African National Congress's (ANC's) endorsement of Robert Mugabe's electoral 'victories' in Zimbabwe since 2002. The article suggests that this reveals far more than simply bad foreign policy but, more troublingly, is suggestive of a partial if not hostile attitude to political society and the contingency and pluralism upon which democracy, necessarily, rests.
