The denunciation of populism is analyzed as a way to structure the field of politics according to a certain distribution of agencies and capabilities which dissolves its very object, the power of the people. Against such an attitude, references to the “popular”, as illustrated in Stanley Cavell’s writings on film and in current studies on TV series, restore a form of popular agency within the perspective of democratic perfectionism.
