Exploring how a Freudian-Lacanian approach to psychoanalysis
intersects with social and cultural theory, Lacan, Jouissance and
the Social Sciences demonstrates the significance of subjectivity
as a concept for the study of leadership, social psychology,
culture, and political theory. Raul Moncayo examines Lacan’s
notion of surplus jouissance in relation to four types of
socio-economic value: Productive Value, Exchange Value, Surplus
Value and Profit. Also drawing on the work of Slavoj Žižek,
Moncayo contends that surplus production cannot be reduced to
alienated labor, but rather includes various levels of
jouissance-value. In this way, the jouissance that drives
capitalization and organization can be theorized as constructive
rather than destructive, and encompass satisfaction and prosperity
rather than individual suffering. This volume will be of great
interest to psychoanalysts both in practice and in training, and to
academics and scholars of psychoanalytic studies, Lacanian studies,
and the social sciences.
