Does the poststructuralist decentring of the foundational subject
permit a coherent account of agency? Gavin Rae shows that the
problematic status of agency caused by the poststructuralist
decentring of the subject is a prime concern for poststructuralist
thinkers. First, Rae shows how this plays out in the thinking of
Deleuze, Derrida and Foucault. He then demonstrates that it is with
those poststructuralists associated with and influenced by Lacanian
psychoanalysis that this issue most clearly comes to the fore. He
goes on to reveal that the conceptual schema of Cornelius
Castoriadis best explains how the founded subject is capable of
agency.
