Crisis of Authority: Politics, Trust, and Truth-Telling in Freud and Foucault
Luxon, Nancy (University of Minnesota)
Crisis of Authority analyzes the practices that bind authority, trust and truthfulness in contemporary theory and politics. Drawing on newly available archival materials, Nancy Luxon locates two models for such practices in Sigmund Freud's writings on psychoanalytic technique and Michel Foucault's unpublished lectures on the ancient ethical practices of 'fearless speech', or parrhesia.
