    Enjoyment and Submission in Modern Fantasy
    • 2020

      Exploring the complexities of bourgeois submission, this book redefines 'bourgeois' as a key analytical concept, viewing it through the lens of psychic economy rather than merely social class. It connects contemporary enjoyment and neoliberal aggression to a cycle of trauma and anxiety rooted in the bourgeois relationship with symbolic authority. Engaging with theorists like Butler and Zizek, the work highlights psychological mechanisms—desire and enjoyment—that underpin capitalism's persistence, challenging traditional anticapitalist and decolonial narratives.
