Scholarly Works

edit

Derek Hook has made substantial scholarly contributions to the psychoanalysis of racism,[22] and his applied psychoanalytic and socio-political research examines the psychical modalities of race and racism, focusing on American and South African contexts.[6] He has developed this work in recent articles related to death-bound subjectivity and Fanon's zone of non-being, petrified life,[23] white anxiety, temporality in the work of Fanon, the death-drive, and racializing embodiment.

Hook co-edits the Palgrave Lacan Series with Calum Neill, and is one of three editors (along with Stijn Vanheule and Calum Neill) of the 3-volume Routledge series Reading Lacan's Écrits. His edited collection, Lie on Your Wounds: The Prison Correspondence of Robert Mangaliso Sobukwe[24][25] was published in 2019. His monographs Foucault, Psychology and the Analytics of Power[26] was published in 2010 and Six Moments in Lacan was published in 2017. He has recently co-authored the book Lacan and Race with Sheldon George and Fanon, Phenomenology and Psychology with Leswin Laubscher and Miraj Desai. In African Spectrum, Danielle Faye Tran wrote that Hook's work "is an essential read for students of all levels who wish to gain a more detailed understanding of the criticism and theories surrounding the discussion of racism and social psychology in post-Apartheid states."[7] The second edition of his book, A Critical Psychology of the Post-Colonial: The Mind of Apartheid is forthcoming.

Since 2020 Hook has hosted a YouTube channel where he teaches psychoanalysis and critical theory to a wide audience and interviews theorists and clinicians.[27] As of June 2024, he has had nearly half a million views. Hook is known for his infectious enthusiasm for psychoanalysis and is loved by his students.[28] He is also known for his ability to teach difficult theoretical concepts and for making the work of Lacan more approachable.[29] Referring to Hooks work, Stijn Vanheule notes that it is "erudite, entertaining, and it bypasses the twin trappings of dogmatism and theoretical jargon."[30]
