Revolutionary theories from Marx onward have often struggled to
unite the psychological commitments of individuals- understood as
ideological- with the larger ethical or political goals of a social
movement. As a psychiatrist, social theorist, and revolutionary,
Frantz Fanon attempted to connect the ideological and the
political. Fanon's work gives both a psychological explanation of
the origins of ideology and seeks to restore the individual to
autonomy and political agency. This book explores the deeper
philosophical foundations of Fanon's project in order to understand
the depths of Fanon's contribution to the theory of the subject and
to social theory. It also demonstrates how Fanon's model makes it
possible to understand the political dimensions of Freudian
psychoanalysis and the psychological dimensions of Hegel's social
theory. This is the first book to bring these two central
dimensions of Fanon's thought into dialogue. It uses Fanon's
position to provide a deeper interpretation of key texts in Freud
and Hegel and by uniting these three thinkers contributes to the
creolization of all three thinkers.
