In this impressive multi-disciplinary collection, we have what we so badly needed: a series of socio-historically grounded studies that apply the concept of <i>jouissance</i> in properly analytical and critically-nuanced ways. An invaluable resource for anyone wishing to apply the concept of <i>jouissance</i> to the complexities of socio-political analysis today.
