Reseña del libro "Sexuality and Class Struggle"
This book which combines the methods and results of both Freud and Marx is by one of the leaders of the West German student left during its most militant phase in the late 1960s. For reasons the author makes clear, the anti-authoritarian movement took more thorough going and trenchant forms in West Germany than anywhere else. A new sexual morality was not only preached but practised. Is it possible, however the author asks that this new emphasis on sexual enlightenment and liberty can become merely a characteristic of Western capitalism, which serves to activate the market economy, deflect rebellion, and hence contribute to the preservation of the system? In answering this question Reiche explains and develops Marcuse's widely misunderstood concept of 'repressive desublimation'. He exposes the artificial and illusory nature of many attempts in Germany and elsewhere at 'sexual liberation', and shows why it is impossible to overcome sexual oppression and mystification in our society in isolation from the political struggle.
