negativity
type: Concept
definition: Negativity, together with cognate words such as the negative or negation, is a common term in political theory, but it remains an elusive concept. The paradox of the negative is that it is, in principle, averse to definition or identification because this would render it fixed, positive. [Source: Encyclopedia of Political Theory; Negativity]
