Abstraction or alienation?
Abstraction and alienation are two different concepts. Abstraction refers to the process of simplifying or generalizing something, often to understand it better or to represent it in a more basic form. On the other hand, alienation refers to the feeling of being isolated or disconnected from others or from society. While abstraction can be a useful tool for understanding complex ideas, alienation can be a negative experience that can lead to feelings of loneliness and disconnection. It's important to be mindful of the potential effects of both abstraction and alienation in different contexts.

Marx with Spinoza : Production, Alienation, History
A provocative study of the intersection of Spinoza and Marx that shows how their respective philosophies engage overlapping questions and problems Offers the first translation of Fischbach's work, and the most important book published in France on Spinoza and Marx, into EnglishPairs these philosophers of production who are both critical philosophers of subjectivityPresents a major study of the points of intersection in the thought of Spinoza and MarxDevelops original approaches to concepts such as alienation, history, and nature Spinoza and Marx would seem to be two very opposed philosophers.Spinoza was interested in contemplating eternal truths of nature while Marx was interested in the history of capital. Franck Fischbach suggests that by reading the two together we may better understand both history and nature, as well as ourselves, making possible a new understanding of human nature.Rather than see history and nature as opposed, history is nothing but the constant transformation of nature. Central to this transformation is a new understanding of alienation not as loss of the self in a world of objects, but as loss of objects in a world that disconnects us from nature and social relations, leaving us isolated as a subject.The isolated individual, the kingdom within a kingdom, as Spinoza put it, is not the condition of our liberation but the basis of our subjection.

Unconscious Politics : Alienation, Social Science and Psychoanalysis
The social sciences and psychology see the origins of human experience from opposite directions: the inner world of the individual vs demands by society to conform.Politicians tend to follow the ideas of the social scientists and mostly ignore unconscious factors.Psychoanalysts, on the other hand, tend to focus on the human unconscious and mostly ignore the complexities of society, economics, and history.Yet, both disciplines are rooted in humanity. Social forces impact on individuals; and society is but the creation of individuals themselves.Thus, factors from both sources have validity and must impact on each other.Hinshelwood has turned to psychoanalysis as the subjective science, to balance the attempted objectivity of social sciences.The creation of a psychosocial model to bring the sparring disciplines together has been attempted many times on a conceptual level but Hinshelwood starts with a singularly interesting convergence at the level of observation. At a time where we face the imminent collapse of human civilisation, and possible extinction of the human species, it is important we attempt to understand the processes that have led us here.We need to find out where the forces of society and the imperatives of our individual selves converge in these particular threats.In order to regenerate some real optimism for our future, we need psychoanalysis to investigate the unconscious dynamics in where we went wrong. A predominant theme identified by Hinshelwood is the gradual, long-term dehumanisation of humans, which has led to widespread alienation from both society and the self.This takes place alongside the convergence of the value of money with the value of a person.Hinshelwood’s use of the psychoanalytic theory of the unconscious mind to investigate humanity, society, and capitalism brings fresh insight to the intractable fractures we see in our social systems worldwide and hope for change.

The Psychiatric Writings from Alienation and Freedom
Frantz Fanon’s psychiatric career was crucial to his thinking as an anti-colonialist writer and activist.Much of his iconic work was shaped by his experiences working in hospitals in France, Algeria and Tunisia.The writing collected here was written from 1951 to 1960 in tandem with his political work and reveals much about how Fanon’s thought developed, showing that, for him, psychiatry was part of a much wider socio-political struggle.His political, revolutionary and literary lives should not then be separated from the psychiatric practice and writings that shaped his thinking about oppression, alienation and the search for freedom.
