Marx. Durkheim. Critical Theory. Disintegration brings sociology, psychoanalysis, and dialectics together to offer a rousing critique of modern life.
Together again for the first time, Marx and Durkheim join forces in the pages of Disintegration: Bad Love, Collective Suicide, and the Idols of Imperial Twilight for a dialectical exploration of the moral economy of neoliberalism, animated, as it is not only by the capitalist chase for surplus value, but also by an immortal vortex of sacred powers. Classical sociology and psychoanalysis are reconstituted within Hegelian social ontology and dialectical method that differentiates between the ephemeral and free and the eternal and fixed aspects of modern life.
Mark Worrell, Ph.D. (2003), University of Kansas, is an Associate Editor at Critical Sociology and has published articles in a wide variety of critical social theory journals and has authored or edited numerous books.
A critical reflection on what classical sociology and psychoanalysis have to gain by being put into a Hegelian framework, combined with an examination of our contemporary culture / society through that same lens.
