Description
In this challenge to the postmodern critiques of psychoanalysis, Joel Whitebook argues for a reintegration of Freud's investigation of the unconscious with the political and philosophical insights of critical theory. "Perversion and Utopia" follows in the tradition of Marcuse's "Eros and Civilization" and Ricoeur's "Freud and Philosophy".
