Exhausting Modernity
Exhausting Modernity is a bold new work on the exhaustion of our resources, both natural and human. Drawing on the insights of Marx and Freud, it provides a compelling analysis of the exhaustion pervading modern capitalism: environmental collapse, rising poverty levels and increasing global economic disparity. This is essential reading for political and social theorists, philosophers, economists, and all those interested in the environment

Which Third Way
Clinton and Blair have extolled a Third Way policy which is supposed to go beyond the policies of the present world where the `First Way' (capitalism) rules and the Second (socialism) failed. Clinton's Third Way ennumerated positive changes in theory, such as universal health care, equity in the tax code, national education standards and preschool. But in practice, the third way has only resulted in `welfare reform' and a free-trade pact with Mex…

Social Pressure
Social Pressure Teresa Brennan 1. Preamble: It has become habitual to think of the social as immaterial or unphysical, as something which does not enter into or physically affect the body. Despite the strong evidence of psychosomatic disorders, or the logical deductions that follow from the facts that words and images are physical entities as well as conveyors of meaning, social theory continues to think the relation between the physical and the …
The Two Forms of Consciousness
L'A. presente une analyse constructiviste des phenomenes de conscience. Elle examine de quelle maniere Freud concevait le rapport entre conscience et inconscient. Elle insiste sur le fait que, pour ce dernier, la conscience constitue a proprement parler l'ego et la source de l'identite. Elle distingue deux formes de conscience : la premiere s'identifie a l'intentionnalite consciente alors que la seconde resulte du sentiment spontane qui revele in…

History after Lacan
Lacan was not an ahistorical post-structuralist. Starting from this controversial premiss, Teresa Brennan tells the story of a social psychosis. She begins by recovering Lacan's neglected theory of history which argued that we are in the grip of a psychotic's era which began in the seventeenth century and climaxes in the present. By extending and elaborating Lacan's theory, Brennan develops a general theory of modernity. Contrary to postmodern as…
Mere Auxiliaries to the Commonwealth
Married women pose an acute, but now unacknowledged, problem for liberal theory. The character and magnitude of the problem can only be fully understood if the development of liberal theory is examined in the context of the impact of the consolidation of capitalism upon the socio-economic position of married women. Because the conception of ‘natural’ individual freedom and equality was central to contract theory, Hobbes and Locke had to deal with…
