This book explores the impact of poststructuralism on
contemporary political theory by focussing on problems and issues
central to politics today.
Drawing on the theoretical concerns brought to light by the
'poststructuralist' thinkers Foucault, Derrida, Lacan, Deleuze and
Max Stirner, Newman provides a critical examination of new
developments in contemporary political theory: post-Marxism,
discourse analysis, new theories of ideology and power, hegemony,
radical democracy and psychoanalytic theory. He re-examines the
political in light of these developments in theory to suggest new
ways of thinking about politics through a reflection on the
challenges that confront it.
This volume will be of great interest to students of
postmodernism and poststructuralist theory in political science,
philosophy, sociology, philosophy and cultural studies.
