About the book
"In Liberating Oedipus? Psychoanalysis as Critical Theory, Filip Kovacevic demonstrates how psychoanalytical theory can join political theory in designing alternative political north and values. Detailing the thoughts of major psychologists including Sigmund Freud, Jacques Lacan, and Alain Badiou, this book offers a new approach to traditional Lacanian theory. Kovacevic's emphasis on Lacanian psychoanalysis is especially relevant due to the modern challenges of failed globalization and the subsequent terrorist reactions. Kovacevic proves that political practice without an emancipatory psychology to guide it is potentially dangerous. Liberating Oedipus? is a critical text for scholars of political "theory and those interested in the history of ideas."--Jacket.
