Everything is Permitted, Restrictions Still Apply - A Psychoanalytic Perspective on Social Dislocation, Narcissism, and Post Truth Thurston Ian Paperback
This book applies historicised psychoanalytic thinking in a non-reductive way to better understand the dominant emotional trends in contemporary cultural and socio-political life, with a specific focus on the relationship between social dislocation, narcissism, and "post truth".Rapid social dislocation and change are ubiquitous in late capitalist societies, though these processes may be felt unequally. There is a tendency to assert the primacy of a compelling emotional narrative over the claims of evidence and expertise, and to relate to others, past and present, as Following the work of the late Christopher Lasch, Everything is Permitted, Restrictions Still Apply suggests there are powerful narcissistic trends in contemporary life mitigating against the capacity to acknowledge and face these changes; in other words, against the capacity to face reality and to mourn.
