Before Marcuse and Laing, before Heidegger and Sartre, even before
Freud, the way was prepared for the anarcho-psychological critique
of economic man, of all codes of ideology or absolute morality, and
of scientific habits of mind. First published in 1974, this title
traces this philosophical tradition to its roots in the nineteenth
century, to the figures of Stirner, Nietzsche and Dostoevsky, and
to their psychological demolition of the two alternative axes of
social theory and practice, a critique which today reads more
pertinently than ever, and remains unanswered. To understand this
critique is crucial for an age which has shown a mounting revulsion
at the consequences of the Crystal Palace, symbol at once of
technologico-industrial progress and its rationalist-scientist
ideology, an age whose imaginative preoccupations have telescoped
onto the individual, and whose interest has switched from the
social realm to that of anarchic, inner, 'psychological man'.
