Abstract: A manifesto is partial, not balanced. A manifesto is normative, not analytic. A manifesto movesin declarations, not arguments. A manifesto wants to affect change here and now, not describeeternal truths. A manifesto is as much a formal performance of its own program as a descriptionthereof. A manifesto, in short, is a rhetorical intervention that expresses an aesthetic/politicalvision through form and content in order to shape the present. (Caws 2001)
