A talk by Santiago López Petit. The power of therapy.

What currently feeds capitalism is no longer the product of my work, but my own life. It is this managed life, put to work, which becomes unliveable. The power of therapy intervenes precisely to ensure that the mobilization does not stop, in order to (re)reconstruct normality.
