dc.descriptionThe principal subject of this book is a term that is, philosophically speaking, dubious, and yet indubitably significant: ‘subjectivation’. As a term that circulates with increasing frequency in a number of critical discourses ever since Michel Foucault discussed it in the early 1980s (see Foucault, 1990, pp. 28–32; compare Butler, 1997, pp. 83–105), and that is of theoretical and practical relevance for a variety of academic disciplines ranging from Sociology via Aesthetics to Psychoanalysis, ‘subjectivation’ appears ambiguous to the extent that it designates and mediates tensions. What becomes literally manifest as ‘subjectivation’ is most notably the tension between the promising ‘idea’ of autonomous subjectivity on the one hand and the discouraging ‘reality’ of heteronomous subjection on the other—two opposites that are amalgamated into a unique and confusing term.en_US
