Jacques Lacan: Between Psychoanalysis and Politics (Interventions) by Samo Tomsic and Andreja Zevnik
English | 2015 | ISBN: 0415724325, 0415724333 | 332 pages | PDF | 2,4 MB

A charismatic and controversial figure, Lacan is one of the most important thinkers of the twentieth century and his work has revolutionized a range of fields. The volume aims to introduce Lacan’s vast opus to the field of international politics in a coherent and approachable manner.

The volume is split into three distinct sections:

Psychoanalysis and Politics: this section will frame the discussion by providing general background of Lacan’s engagement with politics and the political
Lacan and the Political: each chapter will focus on different key ideas and concepts in Lacan’s thought including ethics, justice, discourse, object a, symptom, jouissance
Political Encounters: seeks to represent different ways of engaging with Lacanian thought and ways of adopting it to explain and comment on global political phenomena

Bringing together internationally recognised scholars in the field, this volume will be an invaluable resource to students and scholars in areas including critical theory, international relations, political theory and political philosophy.
