Beschreibung:
Yannis Stavrakakis is teaching fellow at the department of Government at the University of Essex and Acting Director of the MA programme in Ideology and Discourse Analysis.
The work of Jacques Lacan is second only to Freud in its impact on psychoanalysis. Yannis Stavrakakis clearly examines Lacan's challenging views on time, history, language, alterity, desire and sexuality from a political standpoint. It is the first book to provide an overview of the social and political implications of Lacan's work as a whole for students coming to Lacan for the first time.The first part of Lacan and the Political offers a straightforward and systematic assessment of the importance of Lacan's categories and theoretical constructions for concrete political analysis. The second half of the book applies Lacanian theory to specific examples of widely discussed political issues, such as Green ideology, the question of democracy and the hegemony of advertising in contemporary culture.
Introduction; Chapter 1 The Lacanian Subject; Chapter 2 The Lacanian Object; Chapter 3 Encircling the Political; Chapter 4 Beyond the Fantasy of Utopia; Chapter 5 Ambiguous Democracy and the Ethics of Psychoanalysis;
