No modern thinker has affected our views on identity and culture as forcefully as Sigmund Freud. Yet what is the relevance of Freud to todays world How can Freudian theory be used to explore the cultural possibilities and dangers of the twentyfirst century At a time when the need for an authoritative reference work is greater than ever before, this book presents a bold defence of the relevance and importance of Freud to contemporary culture. Freud 2000 offers a highly readable and lucid application of Freudian concepts to current theoretical issues in the social sciences and the humanities. Issues addressed include the impact of Freud on our understandings of identity and sexuality; the relationship between psychoanalysis and feminism; problems of epistemology and method; the analysis of political violence and international relations; the temporal and spatial constitution of social practices; the coherence of law and jurisprudence; the interpretation of biography and autobiography; and the dynamics of modernity and postmodernism. Freud 2000 is composed of major essays from highly distinguished international scholars: Jessica Benjamin, Stephen Frosh, Jacqueline Rose, Anthony Elliott, C. Fred Alford, Steve Pile, Barry Richards, Joanne Brown, Madelon Sprengnether, David S. Caudill and Harvie Ferguson.

Inscribed to Nancy Chodorow, Professor, University of California, Berkeley: with warm regards: Anthony Elliott. Chodorow believes that psychoanalytic feminism has a rather complex history. Personally, Chodorow sees the political and theoretical origins arising out of the work of Karen Horney, a second generation analyst whose early essays on femininity forcefully challenged Freud. She asserts a model of women with positive primary feminine qualities and self valuation against Freud's model of the defective and/or limited female. Freud 2000 is reference work on Freudian psychology, and is composed of major essays from highly distinguished international scholars: Jessica Benjamin, Stephen Frosh, Jacqueline Rose, Anthony Elliot, C.
