This book outlines a new model for global social justice movements
that is based on Freud and Lacan's central insights regarding the
unconscious, repetition, drives, and transference. Since most of
our current social issues are global in nature, Bob Samuels
convincingly argues that we need a global solution, but that global
solidarity is blocked by narcissistic nationalism and the
capitalist death drive. In examining contemporary social movements
for global justice, Samuels articulates a comprehensive theory of
non-pathological social solidarity, and argues that in the age of
multinational corporations and global climate change, we need a new
model of global justice and government that requires an
understanding of analytic neutrality and free association. This
book uses psychoanalytic theories and practices to explain how
someone like Trump can rise to power, and explores why liberals
have failed to provide a convincing or effective political
alternative. It will be compelling reading to students and teachers
in a range of psychological and political disciplines, and to
anyone interested in psychoanalysis and current politics.
