The \"new orientation\" he proposed for the Socialisme ou Barbarie group centered on the emerging roles of women, youth, and minorities in the growing challenge to established society in the early sixties. Resistance within the group to this new orientation led Castoriadis to criticize the \"neopaleo- Marxism\" of Jean-François Lyotard and others who ultimately left Socialisme ou Barbarie. A heightened concern for ethnological issues culminated in what might be called, to the embarrassment of today's \"poststructuralists,\" Castoriadis's \"premature antistructuralism.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdditional texts examine the dissolution of the group itself and analyze the May 1968 rebellion of workers and students - who, according to their own testimony, were inspired by ideas developed in the group's journal. Also included were many of Castoriadis's still-relevant political writings from the seventies, which were developed in tandem with the more explicitly philosophical work now found in \u003ci\u003eThe Imaginary Institution of Society and Crossroads in the Labyrinth\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003ePolitical and Social Writings: Volume 3\u003c\/i\u003e provides key elements for a radical renewal of emancipatory thought and action while offering an irreplaceable and hitherto missing perspective on postwar French thought.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Univ Of Minnesota Press","offers":[{"title":"Political and Social Writings: Volume 3, 1961-1979 (Minnesota Archive Editions) | Cornelius Castoriadis | Paperback | 9780816621682 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks A 1750196","offer_id":48882779652248,"sku":"1750196","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/51Ek_yi8-dL.jpg?v=1776445876","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/political-and-social-writings-volume-3-1961-1979-minnesota-archive-editions","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
