What does it mean to 'think differently'? What are the conditions
under which original thought can take place and what are the
obstacles to it? The ability to create thoughts is what lies at the
base of philosophy and political theory and practice. One cannot
hope to change the world, or even adequately critique it, without
the possibility of the new in mental life.
"The Political Mind" seeks to explore the possibility of
thinking differently through connecting neuropsychological material
on consciousness, nonconsciousness and affect to political theory.
It spans many diverse disciplines: from hard-edged neuropsychology
to sociology, economics, political theory and Eastern and Western
philosophy. Its originality lies in its ability to draw meaningful
connections between such disparate literatures, weaving a coherent
whole. It then applies the concepts created to the currently
popular topics of consumerism and the anti-capitalist and
anti-globalisation movements.
Key Features:
* Unique in drawing connections between neuropsychology and
political theory
* Addresses an enormous breadth of material
* Relevant to those interested in the anti-globalisation and
anti-capitalism movements
