Discourse Theory, Psychoanalysis, and Logics of Critical Explanation
Conteúdo do artigo principal
Resumo
In September 2019, Jason Glynos, Professor of Political Theory at the Department of Government,
University of Essex, UK, visited Recife, Brazil, while staying in the country for two months, for a
series of academic activities held at the Federal University of Pernambuco (UFPE), co-convened by
Profs. Gustavo Oliveira and Anna Luiza Oliveira (UFPE) and Joanildo Burity (Fundaj and UFPE).
Two interviews were then granted by Prof. Glynos, one of them focusing on the Critical Fantasy
Studies research programme he is developing and here the reader will find the second one, focused
on Glynos’s own intellectual trajectory, his engagement with discourse theory and psychoanalysis
(expressed in his dialogue with Ernesto Laclau and Slavoj Žižek) and a discussion of methodological
aspects of the logics framework developed by him and David Howarth (also from the University of
Essex). Particular attention will be given to the relation between the logics of equivalence and
difference, on the one hand, and the three meso-level logics put forward by Glynos and Howarth, as
the social, political and fantasmatic logics. Glynos is also asked to ponder on how the latter relate to
one another, especially in contexts of empirical work, around the question of problematization. The
interview was conducted by Joanildo Burity and Gustavo Oliveira, at the Joaquim Nabuco
Foundation.
