هذا الكتاب العلمي يبحث في تقديم حلول صحيحة لمشاكل المجتمعات على أسس منهجية سليمة، وبصرف النظر عن المحرمات الغيبية، فهو يدرس على أساس علمي وإحصائي، نظري وتجريبي، مسائل الحياة الجنسية ومشاكلها في مجتمعين هما ألمانيا والولايات المتحدة الأمريكية. أهم ما يؤكده هذا الكتاب أن النشاط الجنسي بين أفراد المجتمع يتحكم فيها بشكل كبير شكل النشاط الاقتصادي لدى هذا المجتمع.
Reimut Reiche is a German sociologist, sexologist, author and psychoanalyst born in Germany in 1941. He left school when he was fifteen, and qualified for university from night school. He studied sociology in West Berlin and Frankfurt, and joined the German student socialist movement – the SDS – becoming both one of its leading activists and chief theoreticians, publishing numerous articles in its leading journal, Neue Kritik. He was President of the SDS during the height of its activity in 1966–67. He was also a member of the group Revolutionärer Kampf in Frankfurt. Among his other publications are an historical and theoretical study of colonial revolution, and a critique of Herbert Marcuse.
From 1973 to 1980 Reiche studied at the Sigmund-Freud-Institut in Frankfurt am Main and he became a psychoanalyst in 1980 (DPV). Since 1980 Reiche has been working as a psychoanalyst in Frankfurt/Main.
onnodig lastig geschreven, en dit zeg ik ook maar voor 10% uit misschien nog niet zo psycho-analytisch taalvaardig zijn. de stukken die opvallend helderder waren, had ik ook zo veel keer beter mee.
edit: lees ook zeker het vertalersnawoord. of lees alleen het vertalersnawoord. dit maakt het boek een 2,5 waard.
This book was very ahead of its time. That being said, all in all it is not an accessible text, nor is it an introductory text. If you are interested in the intersections of sexuality and class struggle, don't start here.
