The Bank Teller and Other Essays on the Politics of Meaning

A deep exploration of the desire to overcome the isolation that leads us to reproduce an alienated and artificial society. Gabel shows how what he calls "the opening up of desire" requires a fundamental challenge to the cynical and adversarial character of our existing political, legal, and educational institutions, and he advocates a new political strategy that invents new forms of work, friendship, and community.Peter Gabel is the author of 'The Bank Teller and Other Essays on the Politics of Meaning', published 2000 under ISBN 9780965502962 and ISBN 0965502961.
