"Why does the field of sociology in the United States often overlook or marginalize
psychoanalytic concepts like anxiety, defence mechanisms, and the unconscious dating
back to Sigmund Freud? The Unhappy Divorce of Sociology and Psychoanalysis shows that
this was not always the case, and that the field of contemporary sociology can benefit
from inclusion of psychoanalytic perspectives. It features twenty-one essays by well-known
scholars in and outside the United States - including Nancy Chodorow, George Cavalletto
and Catherine Silver, Jeffrey Prager, Neil Smelser and Gilda Zwerman, alongside junior
scholars who are all working on how sociology, psychoanalysis, and the psychosocial
interrelate. Beginning with a preface by Jeffrey Alexander and a foreword by Craig
Calhoun, the articles consider the history of the relationship, ongoing debates, and
the need for psychosocial analyses when studying racism, gender, immigration, class
and the housing crisis, trauma and social movements (among other applied topics).
The book makes a lively case for the significance of tapping into interdisciplinary
approaches, including the psychosocial, if sociology is to offer cutting-edge research
on a range of contemporary social issues requiring multi-dimensional insights. "
