Pre-Oedipal Kleinian models of racist desire were neglected until Male Fantasies.
Evidence
Almost all the work inspired by Adorno and by Freud’s 1922 paper on paranoia, focuses on the Oedipal structuration of racist desire. As a result the forms of pre-Oedipal identification and aggressivity which the work of Melanie Klein and her followers put on the psychoanalytic map, have, until very recently, been virtually ignored. The publication of Klaus Theweleit’s Male Fantasies (1987) changed all that. — David Theo Goldberg, John Solomos, A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies, 1370
