Herbert Marcuse: Eros and Civilization

Описание: The very theoretical backdrop for Herbert Marcuse's later work, and one of the most important books concerning the Critical Theory. Right from the start, Marcuse seeks to refute the Freudian idea that repression is a necessity for a functioning society. Marcuse claims Freud did extremely well at defining the western subject, yet his most important insights are lost with Neo-Freudian and modern psychology. We see that throughout this book, Freud's entire foundation can be viewed from a sociological lens, and that with this lens, we can truly see nature of modern repression, and more importantly, we can find a potential way out.
