内容介绍

一本探讨政治挫败的心理感受


争取美好世界路上挫折难免,失败有时让人沮丧,但仍要坚持。作者挖掘历史,探寻革命者和激进分子如何保持希望。书中探讨流放南太平洋的公社社员丶绝望逃离城市的布尔什维克丶梦到荒地的前激进分子丶寻求灵性疗愈的工会组织者和怒吼父权制的女性主义者。作者抛弃心理治疗模式的束缚,提出超越否认和绝望的新路径,展现激进分子如何理解和应对倦怠,做到哀悼抗争双管齐下,不妥协地前行。



Hannah Proctor 是格拉斯哥斯特拉斯克莱德大学威康基金会研究员,专研激进精神病学的历史和理论。 她是《激进哲学》( Radical Philosophy) 编辑团体的成员,曾在《Jacobin》丶《Tribune》丶《The New Inquiry》等杂志上发表文章。


好评


Hannah Proctor is one of the best writers on the left today, and this is an extraordinary and extremely timely book – a kaleidoscopic work of revolutionary history on what happens when our day doesn’t come and we have to cope with the consequences. Refusing both the easy temptations of left melancholia and forced ‘just another push, comrades!’ optimism, this is a book full of unromantic communist longing, deadpan humour and hard-won wisdom.

Owen Hatherley, author of The Ministry of Nostalgia


Not since Freud first described war neurosis have we been treated to such an astonishing taxonomy of the human mind. In Burnout, Hannah Proctor takes that feeling we all have, and names it again and again, helping us to resee the past and present of revolutionary struggle. A must-read.
