Libido Dominandi Sexual Liberation and Political Control
Libido Dominandi Sexual Liberation and Political Control
Synopsis
This historical analysis traces the concept of freedom from St. Augustine's view of moral liberation to the Marquis de Sade's radical ideas connecting sexual and political revolution. It explores how the pursuit of sexual liberation, from the late 18th century to the present, paradoxically became a sophisticated form of social control. The book argues that attempts to free humanity from moral order often necessitate new forms of societal regulation to prevent anarchy.
