Full Description
Lacan on Society is an exhaustive archeological and contingent review of Lacan's approaches to society throughout his work, seminars, and écrits.
Through a systematic and chronological analysis of Lacan's work, Edgar Miguel Juárez-Salazar highlights critical, structural, and divergent surfaces as they emerge within the concept of society. The book explores diverse manifestations of society to conjugate social and structural phenomena such as ideals, the metamorphoses of social enjoyment, the structural demand to produce social order, and the political economy of the signifier and its abstract circulation. Juárez-Salazar's work evaluates Lacan's critique of the notion of the family complexes, the relation between society and social modes of enjoyment, and the homology between Marx and Lacan, concluding with an invitation to subvert the understanding of society and its diatribes.
Lacan on Society will be of great interest to academics and scholars of psychoanalysis, critical theory and Lacanian studies. It will also be relevant to academics and scholars of political economy, cybernetics, post-Marxist thought, gender studies and sociology.
