• Psychoanalysis and/As Philosophy? The Anthropological Significance of Pathology in Freud's Three Essays On the Theory of Sexuality and in the Psychoanalytic Tradition

What is the challenge which psychoanalysis poses to philosophy? Traditionally the assumption is made that psychoanalysis needs philosophy to provide its foundation. MerleauPonty, for example, was of the opinion that psychoanalysis contains an implicit philosophy that, hidden from view by the scientistic presuppositions of its founder, can only be formulated adequately by phenomenology. The insights of psychoanalysis must be translated into the language of phenomenology. Only then can they reveal their truth.1 In so doing, do we not run the risk of reducing psychoanalysis all too easily to well known philosophical topics, and thereby run the risk of avoiding a genuine confrontation and debate? Regardless of the extent to which psychoanalysis may need philosophy, must we not first ask wha...

• Commanded to Enjoy: The Waning of Traditional Authority and Its Implications for Public Administration

This article addresses the recent changes in social experience and the effect these changes have on the practice of public administration. It is argued that we have moved from a society of prohibition to a society of commanded enjoyment. This thesis is explored using the frame of Lacanian psychoanalysis. The central claim is that the waning of traditional authority means that enjoyment or jouissance operates on an axis of possibility or impossibility. In such a realm, the co-terminus relationship of science and the market make most things possible.

NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Modern legal scholarship has been dominated by the model of rationality posited by neo- classical economic theory. Even proponents of "behavioral economics" adopt the neo-classical model merely asserting that, as an empirical matter, economic actors deviate from it in certain predictable ways.

The arguments for a greater interdiscipliarity in the arts and art history are unnecessary since art inherently draws from multiple disciplines. Perhaps it would be better to clarify what the topic of art history is, since art historians have varying opinions about their text. Some art historians, such as Mieke Bal, have taken an approach that involves disciplines such as semiotics, psychoanalysis and feminist theory.
