Poststructuralism and After provides a comprehensive, innovative and lucid account of contemporary poststructuralist theory, which probes its limits, explores rival theoretical approaches, and elaborates new concepts and logics. The book distils and articulates the basic philosophical assumptions and theoretical concepts of poststructuralism, but by building upon the work of Derrida, Foucault, Heidegger, Lacan, Laclau, Levi-Strauss, Marx, Saussure and & ek it also provides a distinctive version of the poststructuralist project. The philosophy and theory of poststructuralism is presented through a critical engagement with the central problems of social and political theory. Empirical illustrations and case studies of selected social phenomena further illuminate the theoretical arguments displayed in this book.
