Description

Lost Subjects, Contested Objects: A Psychoanalytic Inquiry into Learning and Education. Deborah P. Britzman explores the complex relationships between love, hate, and learning in education, drawing on psychoanalytic theory to challenge conventional approaches to pedagogy. By examining the intersections of education, psychoanalysis, and ethics, Britzman considers how social and cultural histories shape our understanding of the subject. This book delves into topics such as sex education, anti-racist pedagogy, and the role of reading practices in teaching, highlighting the need for a more nuanced approach to learning design. With its interdisciplinary perspective, Lost Subjects, Contested Objects offers a thought-provoking analysis of the ways in which psychoanalytic theories can inform our understanding of education and its many complexities.
