Publisher's Synopsis
The gradual installation in our Western societies of a colonial, cisheteropatriarchal and capitalist regime of the unconscious imposes a single thought and makes otherness an object of exploitation or violence. Faced with this, Suley Rolnik encourages us to decolonize the unconscious. How can we become something other than what we are? This question has guided the reflection of the philosopher and psychoanalyst for years, who has dedicated her research to understanding how to transform ourselves to abandon our narcissistic identity and create a way of life that recognizes and cares for the presence of others. Only with a new politics of desire can we free our creative power from its neoliberal exploitation and thus be able to generate a different future for ourselves.
