<p>In this academic work, Luis Marquez uncovers the paradoxical notion of the human psyche that brings about an eruptual end to the meaningless abyss of post-modernism.&nbsp; By bringing together the works and thoughts of numerous great thinkers such as: Socrates, Aristotle, Baruch Spinoza, Slavoj Žižek, Jacques Lacan, Friedrich Nietzsche and Alasdair MacIntyre; Luis Marquez is able to elicit a rich philosophical discourse.&nbsp; The main theme of this work is to tackle the prevailing decline of Aristotelian teleology or the telos, its ethical dimension in Western political and cultural thought.&nbsp; Following the critique of Žižek and MacIntyre about post-modernism&#39;s inherent absence of a coherent, purposeful political and culture&nbsp; discourse,&nbsp; Luis Marquez argues for the revival of the telos within a political society by unlocking its revolutionary potential within human unconsciousness.&nbsp; Marquez formulates a compelling critique of contemporary philosophers who argue that the telos is lost or has gone extinct, by demonstrating the contrary, as a critical component of human relations and a vital source of further human progression and happiness.</p>
