I am the book review editor for the journal, Socialism and Democracy. We are looking for someone to review:
The Years of Theory: Postwar French Thought to the Present By Fredrick Jameson In this important book, Fredric Jameson introduces the major themes of French theory: existentialism, structuralism, poststructuralism, semiotics, feminism, psychoanalysis, and Marxism. In a series of accessible lectures, Jameson places this effervescent period of thought in the context of its most significant political conjunctures, including the Liberation of Paris, the Algerian War, the uprisings of May '68, and the creation of the EU. The philosophical debates of the period come to life through anecdotes and extended readings of work by the likes of Sartre, Beauvoir, Fanon, Barthes, Foucault, Althusser, Derrida, Deleuze, groups like Tel Quel and contemporary thinkers such as Rancière and Badiou. Eclectic, insightful, and inspired, Jameson's seminar provides an essential account of an intellectual moment , historically fascinating and of persistent relevance. This book is a graduate course Jameson gave at Duke.
