Born in Martinique, Frantz Fanon (1925-61) trained as a psychiatrist in Lyon before taking up a post in colonial Algeria. He had already experienced racism as a volunteer in the Free French Army, in which he saw combat at the end of the Second World War.

The Lives of Michel Foucault
ISBN: 9780679757924 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 624 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. When he died of an AIDS-related condition in 1984, Michel Foucault had become the most influential French philosopher since the end of World War II. His powerful studies of the creation of modern medicine, prisons, psychiatry, and other methods of classification have had a lasting impact on philosophers, historians, critics, and novelists the world over. But as public as he was in his militant campaigns on behalf of prisoners, dissidents, and homosexuals, he shrouded his personal life in mystery.

Lacan in Contexts
ISBN: 9780860919421 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In the most comprehensive study of Jacques Lacan yet to be published in English, David Macey challenges many of the assumptions that have come to surround Lacan s work. He shows that key elements of Lacanian thought relate not to structuralism, as is often claimed, but to surrealism, Bataille and the early French phenomenologists. The famous return to Freud is shown to mask Lacan s adherence to a psychiatric tradition and to trends within French psychoanalysis which were opposed by Freud himself.
A detailed and challenging reading of work by Lacan and his associates on femininity reveals... In the most comprehensive study of Jacques Lacan yet to be published in English, David Macey challenges many of the assumptions that have come to surr...

Beyond Neoliberalism
ISBN: 9780745624341 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Today neoliberals argue that we should let ourselves be guided by market forces and that there is little we can do to stem the flow of economic globalization. On the other hand, thinkers on the left continue to denounce domination and claim to speak in the name of victims who are powerless to change the circumstances of their lives. Despite the differences between these two political positions, they suffer from a common weakness: they underestimate the role of autonomous social actors who are capable of influencing political decision-making.

Can We Live Together?: Equality and Difference
ISBN: 9780804740432 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this book, a leading French social thinker grapples with the gap between the tendency toward globalization of economic relations and mass culture and the increasingly sectarian nature of our social identities as members of ethnic, religious, or national groups. Though at first glance, it might seem as if the answer to the question -Can we live together?- is that we already do live together--watching the same television programs, buying the same clothes, and even using the same language to communicate from one country to another--the author argues that in important ways, we are farther than...
