Marcuse's "lectures deal with the forces of repression that our society continued to generate at the very point in time when it has developed the means for creating a non-repressive society. Beginning with 3 lectures on Freud," he "examines the concepts of freedom and of progress in Freud's thought, and advances the radical thesis that the individual, as seen by Freud, no longer exists." " In the two concluding lectures on contemporary society (in 1970), he urges a break with today's conception of 'progress' and presents a brief assessment of the current political situation with a view to determining the forces that could bring about change." 108 annotated pages. 5.25x8x.3".
