Abstract
I argue, that we need a political Bildungsroman since the gap between the one who knows and the one who doesn't know is so big, that the questions oft he one who doesn't know appear to be stupid. However, the Bildungsroman would look for these answers not from the point of view oft he one who knows, but from stupidity, ignorance and populism. Bourdieu, Ranciure, Mouffe, Laclau und Adorno provide the theoretical background for this assumption.
