This book deals with a new materialist theory of subjectivity
mobilising philosophy, psychoanalysis, politics and science. Armed
with resources provided by German idealism, Marxism,
psychoanalysis, the life sciences and contemporary philosophy,
Johnston formulates an account of subjectivity that is both
materialist and naturalist, and does full justice to human beings
as irreducible to natural matter alone. At the same time, he argues
against relapses into idealisms, dualisms and spiritualisms. It
critically engages with some of today's most important thinkers,
including Slavoj Zizek, Alain Badiou, Catherine Malabou,
Jean-Claude Milner, Martin Hagglund, William Connolly and Jane
Bennett. It is split into three parts: Zizek: Dossier of an Ongoing
Debate; Psychoanalysis: The Unconscious between Philosophy, Science
and Religion; and, Politics: True and False Utopias. It combines
Continental-style philosophy with science.
