Beginning from the point of political ruptures - symbolized by 1989 - on the theoretical and practical levels, this research critically explores the contemporary critical political imagination. Following this line of thought, this investigation aims at criticizing the state-centrism of some current theorists (Rosenberg, Colás and Panitch). Moreover, it proposes a dialogue between two other critics (Walker and Holloway), in order to explore and appreciate such imaginative boundaries and to suggest - with the help of certain social movements` practices - other ways of thinking through the dilemmas of state sovereignty and its inclusion and exclusion of the political space.
