With his notion of "social plastic" Beuys attempted to rethink democratic politics as a process of social creation. If in some respects he thereby seems to prefigure the politics of contemporary social movements and ideas of radical democracy, feminist theories and practices of democracy help to unpack the majoritarian biases of Beuys' notion and reveal a lack of radicality in its conception of politics.
