Capa do Scott Wilson: The Order of Joy (PDF)

Provocative exploration of a new concept of ‘joy’ within psychoanalytic and cultural studies.

This provocative book introduces a new concept of ‘joy’ within psychoanalytic and cultural studies that provides a different way of understanding the structures of affect produced by shifts in contemporary culture and economy. In so doing, the author offers a radically refigured Lacanianism that is developed through a critical reading of Deleuze.
