Reseña del editor

During the last decade and a half there have been dramatic changes in psychoanalytic theory, as well as in cultural, social and political theory. Psychoanalysis in Contexts examines these changes and explores the relationship between psychoanalysis and theory.
The volume brings together leading scholars and practitioners in psychoanalysis to develop a unique rethinking of the relations between subjectivity and inter-subjectivity, sexual difference and gender power, and unconscious desire and political change.
Psychoanalysis in Contexts creates a dialogue between different psychoanalytic approaches to the study of subjectivity, social action and modern societies. It will be essential reading for everyone interested in the future direction of psychoanalytic and cultural theory.

Reseña del editor

Psychoanalysis in Contexts provides a comprehensive overview of the central issues and debates in contemporary psychoanalytic theory. It also offers guidelines for the reformulation of social, political and cultural theory in the light of psychoanalysis. It includes discussion of the nature of subjectivity and its realtion to the unconscious; the inter-relation of unconscious sexuality and gender; and the psycho-political dimensions of the late modern age. Psychoanalysis in Contexts will become a standard reference point for students and professionals in psychoanalysis and contemporary theory and for all those in the social sciences interested in the psychoanalytic reformulation of contemporary social thought.
