Summary

While understanding the psychic structure of pleasure and desire might seem to be unrelated to grasping our current political crisis, Todd McGowan argues that the intrinsically excessive nature of enjoyment is critically important to this effort.

In a world that appears completely divided between right and left, McGowan calls for a universal form of enjoyment that unites people in an egalitarian project.

Todd McGowan's previous books include Emancipation After Hegel, Capitalism and Desire, and The Impossible David Lynch, among others. He teaches theory and film at the University of Vermont.

Think you understand Left & Right?

Never view the difference between Left & Right the same again!

Vital and compelling arguments for, and for the form of, behavioural change.
Thank you.

Great book

Really loved the job they did together with sublation media. It does make a difference when the one who publishes reads it as well. Not too abstract, but abstract enough to break your head with it. Lovely !
