political dispute

is that which brings politics proper into existence by introducing a veritable dissensus that splits in two the shared world of the community. It is the very essence of politics.

A political dispute concerns the very existence of politics as distinct from the police. Unlike juridical disputes, which take place within the police order, le litige politique brings politics proper into existence by introducing a veritable dissensus that splits in two the shared world of the community' (Rancière 2000: 85).
