Herbert Marcuse
Correct Answer:
D. Herbert Marcuse
Explanation:
The correct answer is Herbert Marcuse. Eros and Civilization: A Philosophical Inquiry into Freud, published in 1955, is one of Marcuse's most influential works. In this text, the German-American philosopher and social critic explores the relationship between psychoanalysis and social theory, attempting to synthesize the ideas of Sigmund Freud and Karl Marx. Marcuse argues that while some repression is necessary for the functioning of any society, modern industrial capitalism imposes unnecessary surplus-repression, and he envisions a future non-repressive civilization centered on liberation and the life instinct, or Eros.
