{"product_id":"lacan-and-the-political-yannis-stavrakakis-9780415171878","title":"Lacan and the Political","description":"The work of Jacques Lacan is second only to Freud in its impact on psychoanalysis. Yannis Stavrakakis clearly examines Lacan's challenging views on time, history, language, alterity, desire and sexuality from a political standpoint. It is the first book to provide an overview of the social and political implications of Lacan's work as a whole for students coming to Lacan for the first time.\u003cbr\u003eThe first part of \u003cem\u003eLacan and the Political\u003c\/em\u003e offers a straightforward and systematic assessment of the importance of Lacan's categories and theoretical constructions for concrete political analysis. The second half of the book applies Lacanian theory to specific examples of widely discussed political issues, such as Green ideology, the question of democracy and the hegemony of advertising in contemporary culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yannis Stavrakakis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415171873\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415171878\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.38h x 6.16w x 0.58d","brand":"Yannis Stavrakakis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44790040625407,"sku":"9780415171878","price":46.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d8f69c94-da49-424d-8895-4df85ecf8788.jpg?v=1707287784","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lacan-and-the-political-yannis-stavrakakis-9780415171878","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
