Between the Psyche and the Social : Psychoanalytic Social Theory, Paperback / softback Book

Between the Psyche and the Social : Psychoanalytic Social Theory Paperback / softback

Edited by Steve Edwin

Paperback / softback

Description

Between the Psyche and the Social is the first collection of its kind to offer original, interdisciplinary essays on questions of social subjectivity.

Contributors engage the disciplines of feminism, psychoanalytic theory, queer theory, postcolonial theory, film theory, literary criticism, and philosophy to transform the psychoanalytic study of social oppression.

The book considers such questions as, How can psychoanalysis and critical social theory engage and transform one another?

How can the social dimensions of subjectivity be understood within the framework of a classic psychoanalytic theory that rejects the social domain that gives rise to subjectivity in the first place? Between the Psyche and the Social reclaims the contributions of psychoanalysis, feminism, queer theory, postcolonial, and political theories in order to change the parameters of the current debates on the social dimensions of subjectivity.
