Description

A new theory of libidinal economy--the intersection between desire and capitalism--from the author of The Capitalist Unconscious

The fourth book in Slavoj Zizek's Lacanian Explorations series, The Labour of Enjoyment sees Slovenian philosopher Samo Tomsic continue his exploration of the connections between capitalism and psychoanalysis that he began in his 2015 book The Capitalist Unconscious.
In this new text, Tomsic critiques the use of psychoanalysis to discuss political economy, focusing specifically on the concept of "libidinal economy," the intersection between desire and capitalism most famously proposed by Jean-Fran�ois Lyotard.
Contrasting Marxist and Freudian thought with the philosophies of Aristotle and Adam Smith, Tomsic suggests that in the age of modernity, political and economic theory should reflect the driving force of alienation rather than narcissism. With this in mind, Tomsic also analyzes the problems of labor and resistance and the "psychoanalytic deadlocks" they present in a traditional understanding of libidinal economy.
