Book excerpt: Once again, for the first time, Marx and Durkheim join forces while exploring the moral economy of neoliberalism.

Relying on dialectical methods, classical sociology and psychoanalysis are reconstituted within an Hegelian social ontology to differentiate the ephemeral from the eternal aspects of social life.
