Der Wille zum Subjekt

Marcus Otto undertakes a systems theory inspired genealogical rewriting of a metanarrative of modernity, which unfolds as a political inclusion-imperative of historic potency on the subject figure. This implies the deconstruction of an overarching will to be the subject which predominates not only in political and societal self-descriptions, but also in historiography to this day. This results in a »failure to decapitate the king,« as Foucault once put it, with reference to political thought.

Marcus Otto (Dr. phil.) arbeitet am Georg-Eckert-Institut - Leibniz-Institut für internationale Schulbuchforschung in Braunschweig. Seine Forschungsschwerpunkte sind u.a. die moderne Geschichte Frankreichs sowie poststrukturalistische und postkoloniale Theorien.
