Justin Clemens examines psychoanalysis under the rubric of 'antiphilosophy': a practice that offers the strongest possible challenges to thought. Drawing on the work of Badiou, Freud, Lacan, Žižek and Agamben, he examines the relationships of humans to drugs, animality and sexuality, and to torture, slavery and swarming.
