The Fetish Revisited: Marx, Freud, And The Gods Black People Make

J. Lorand Matory casts an Afro-Atlantic eye on European social theory to show how Marx's and Freud's conceptions of the fetish illuminate and misrepresent the nature of Africa's gods while demonstrating that Afro-Atlantic gods have their own social logic that is no less rational than European social theories.
