Poststructuralism and After provides a comprehensive, innovative
and lucid account of contemporary poststructuralist theory, which
probes its limits, explores rival theoretical approaches, and
elaborates new concepts and logics. The book distils and
articulates the basic philosophical assumptions and theoretical
concepts of poststructuralism, but by building upon the work of
Derrida, Foucault, Heidegger, Lacan, Laclau, Levi-Strauss, Marx,
Saussure and Zižek it also provides a distinctive version of the
poststructuralist project.The philosophy and theory of
poststructuralism is presented through a critical engagement with
the central problems of social and political theory. Such problems
include the structure/agency dilemma; the problem of social order;
the ongoing debates between positivists, interpretivists and
realists about the role and character of social science; the
relationship between the economy, the state and society; the
complexities of identity/difference; and the role of power,
domination and ideology. Empirical illustrations and case studies
of selected social phenomena further illuminate the theoretical
arguments displayed in this book.
