MacIntyre, Freud, Enlightenment, determinism, marxismAbstract
This article tries to show the reading of Freud that MacIntyre made from 1955 to 1970. For this purpose, it summarizes the ideas of MacIntyre in the intellectual context, mainly the use of philosophical ideas of Freud against the Enlightenment project. MacIntyre criticises Marxist interpreters and the mixing between Marx and Freud. MacIntyre uses the philosophical ideas of Freud for answering two problems on determinism: the links between determinism and reasons for action and determinism and Marxism. The main conclusion is that MacIntyre used Freud in his own advantage: as an ally in the criticism of the Enlightenment.
