The Modern Self in the Labyrinth: Politics and the Entrapment Imagination

This book proposes a new political imagination found in the works of Weber, Freud, and Foucault. Chowers characterizes it as one of “entrapment,” whereby modern identity is constituted by participation in and internalization of the regulatory norms of the institutions that originated in the modern imagination.
