Anti-Psychiatry: The End of the Road?Critical theory draws on Marxism, psychoanalysis, postmodern and poststructuralist theorists. Marxism and psychoanalysis are rooted in the Enlightenment project, while postmodernism and poststructuralism are more indebted to Nietzsche, whose philosophy is rooted in anti-Enlightenment ideas and ideals. Marxism and psychoanalysis contributed mightily to our understanding of fascism and authoritarianism, but were distorted and disfigured by authoritarian tendencies and practices in turn. This book, written for clinicians and social scientists, explores these overarching themes, focusing on the reception of Freud in America, the authoritarian personality and American politics, Lacan’s “return to Freud,” Jordan Peterson and the Crisis of the Liberal Arts, and the anti-psychiatry movement. Daniel Burston is Associate Professor of Psychology at Duquesne University, USA, and the author of numerous books and papers on the history of psychology, psychiatry and psychoanalysis. .Critical Political Theory and Radical Practice,2731-6599PsychologyPolitical sciencePolitical sciencePhilosophyBehavioral Sciences and PsychologyPolitical TheoryPolitical PhilosophyPsychology.Political science.Political sciencePhilosophy.Behavioral Sciences and Psychology.Political Theory.Political Philosophy.150.195320.01Burston Danielauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut908712MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910373955003321Psychoanalysis, Politics and the Postmodern University2032296UNINA
