Summary: | This text is one of the postdoctoral research products developed at the Instituto de Sociologia of the
Universidade do Porto, aiming to understand how pop culture icons translate postmodern values. Here we
are interested in observing how “Sex” reifies contemporary hedonism, and for this we resort to the concept
of fetish in Freud and Marx to analyze discourses of power in their dialectical relationship with the ethos
of the system. “Sex” translates the needs of fugitive sensory experiences into a society hungry for the
eccentric and superficial, being interpreted as an expression of a time. |
