Social Theory Since Freud Traversing Social Imaginaries By: Anthony Elliott Publisher: Routledge Print ISBN: 9780415271639, 0415271630 eText ISBN: 9781134486670, 1134486677 Edition: 1st Pages: 200 Copyright year: 2004 Format: EPUB Available from $ 27.98 USD SKU 9781134486670R90 In this compelling book, Anthony Elliott traces the rise of psychoanalysis from the Frankfurt School to postmodernism. Examining how pathbreaking theorists such as Adorno, Marcuse, Lacan and Lyotard have deployed psychoanalysis to politicise issues such as desire, sexuality, repression and identity, Elliott assesses the gains and losses arising from this appropriation of psychoanalysis in social theory and cultural studies. Moving from the impact of the Culture Wars and recent Freud-bashing to contemporary debates in social theory, feminism and postmodernism, Elliott argues for a new alliance between sociological and psychoanalytic perspectives.
