Technosubjectivities - Laura Ezquerra - diskuze

In Technosubjectivities, Ezquerra invites readers to reconsider the core concepts of psychoanalysis—unconscious, body, drive, transitional object, psychosexuality, and the conditions of symbolization—in light of virtual environments and technologically mediated experiences. Drawing on clinical experience and contemporary culture, the author proposes an innovative psychoanalytic approach for a post-organic clinic. She argues that a new psychoanalytic field is emerging at the crossroads of hybridization, technoculture, and processes of subjectivation. The book explores how subjectivation unfolds at the intersection of human and non-human agencies, animate and inanimate objects, artificial and natural forms, and realities and virtualities. It weaves conceptual argument with detailed clinical case studies, including the encounter between a psychoanalyst and the world's first state-recognised cyborg. This ground-breaking book is essential reading for clinicians dealing with technology-mediated lives, psychoanalysts, neuroscientists, and readers interested in philosophy, psychoanalysis, anthropology, art, technology, and the humanities and to anyone wishing to reflect on the transformations of our time.
