Chicana/o Subjectivity and the Politics of Identity traces the
influence of Hegel's theory of recognition on different literary
representations of Chicano/a subjectivity, demonstrating how the
identity thinking characteristic of liberal-humanist ideologies is
unwillingly reinforced even in subjects that are represented as
rebelling against this tradition. Conversely, alternative
representations that redefine universality as founded on
non-identity, exemplified in Alain Badiou's theorization of the
void, are also examined. This book calls for a return to the
anti-humanist philosophy of psychoanalysis and Marxism, challenging
conventional notions of identity politics by uncovering the false
universalities and ideologically defined differences that such a
politics promotes.
