     well, all of the mentioned authors would definitly be on the 'left'
     (if this category still means anything) but most of them even within
     something like (radical) democracy. i guess it will be hard to find
     any critical reflection on topics like power, control, hegemony, &c
     in the realm of 'liberalism', as (neo)liberalism is seen as the major
     threat to the ideals of democracy...
