Summary
Wilhelm Reich-Sexual Revolution
A contribution to the character self-government of man
Wilhelm Reich (1897-1957) is one of the most controversial psychoanalysts and authors of our time. In the early period, Freud's close collaborator (1924-1930). With his works, he tries to remove Freud's failure to take into account the socio-political dimensions of modern man and tries to connect psychoanalysis and Marxism. In his opinion, mental illnesses are primarily caused by social reasons, i.e. miserable living conditions. In this book, he advocates a sexual revolution, instead of a social one. Having established the inseparable connection between sexual repression and the maintenance of the existing social condition, Reich believes that the existing in the form of social exploitation and existing social relations will be abolished when his assumption, which is sexual dissatisfaction and repression, is abolished.
