The article focuses on the modern tendency to create emancipatory communities outside the identity regime, which it presents in three selected areas, namely literature, politics, and psychoanalysis. A mechanism of their formation discussed in narratology is the privileging of contextual accommodations at the expense of coded communicative rules and conventions. On the ground of politics, the practices of building such alliances are illustrated with examples from analyses of women’s social protests, namely the All- Poland Women’s Strike and the #MeToo movement. J.-L. Nancy’s theses on “divided community” and Judith Butler’s reflections on precarity in social protests serve as the main theoretical concepts in the article. Finally, the text reflects on spontaneous bonding in “love narratives” from the field of psychoanalysis.
