Out of argumentative settings, dissent would seem to have a disruptive effect. In my view, dissension effectively puts into question the political authority’s hypothetical legitimacy. To the extent that this is so, acts of dissent have illocutionary force and give rise to certain changes in the dialectical duties and rights of the participants. |
