Abstract	All violence is now understood as political violence. Understanding violence is always a monumental task owing to the fact that different kinds of violence vary from time to time, and its various definitions do not encompass all the nuances of violence that we face and see today. Going through different definitions of violence indicates a lack of clarity. We keep trying to analyze the nature of violence, but it remains a puzzle. We owe this confusion to rapidly changing political scenarios, but none of them are able to foster radical diversity and radical difference; in other words, radical democracy. This paper, emphasizes the requisiteness of an expanding circle of reference from larger states of exception to permanent states of exception. We also have to look at a causal relationship between the two even to begin answering our pressing concerns about the human condition.
