Sinopse

A work that demonstrates the relevance of Freudian thought and the vitality of Brazilian psychoanalytic literature. A collection of diverse texts, published or presented at conferences, Archives of Discontent and Resistance is structured in three interconnected parts: From Servitude to Fraternity, Power and Subjectivation, and Desire for Resistance. In its 16 chapters, Joel Birman discusses the elements of the contemporary crisis: the crumbling of perspectives for the future, fragile social and emotional bonds, the overvaluation of consumption, the fragmentation of the subject, and the consequences of absolute responsibility for managing one's own life. Also discussed are the malaise of modernity and Brazilianness, violence and barbarity, compulsions for drugs and food, the spread of panic and depression, and discouragement, among other topics. Joel Birman is a full professor at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) and an adjunct professor at the Institute of Social Medicine of the State University of Rio de Janeiro (IMS-UERJ). He holds a PhD in Philosophy from the University of São Paulo and a postdoctoral degree from the University of Paris VII. He is an honorary member of Espace Analytique. His books have twice been awarded the Jabuti Prize in the Psychoanalysis and Psychology category and received the Sérgio Buarque de Holanda Prize in the Social Essay category from the National Library.
