Madness, Citizenship, and Social Justice: On the Ethics of the Shadow and the Ultramodern

  • This article examines the ultramodern ethical crisis at the nexus of madness, citizenship, and social justice. To investigate this crisis, the article is divided into four substantive sections. The first section reviews the contributions of Hegel, Marx, and Freud. Their collective insights provide an incomplete depiction of ultramodernity’s self/society mutuality. The second section comments selectively on the critical social theory of Lacan, Derrida, Foucault, Baudrillard, and Fromm. This commentary demonstrates how the criminological shadow is sustained coproductively (via the organization of cosmopolitanism) and dialectically (via the self/society duality). The third section proposes several provisional ways of integrating these critical theories as a means of re-conceptualizing the ethic of the criminological shadow. The fourth section applies these new, integrated models to suggest a strategy for overcoming the harm coproduced by the ethic of the criminological shadow within the realm of madness, citizenship, and social justice.
