Ego and Super-Ego shaped by Id
Where does this information come from? I am relatively sure that this is not the case. The Super-Ego is an internalization of heterodox values forced upon the individual by society (which is the process linking Marxism and Freudianism). The Ego merely tries to bring the demands of the Id into accordance with those of the Super-Ego, saying that Ego and Super-Ego are shaped by the Id is a gross simplification, which furthermore reduces the interplay of forces (the more biological Id and the more socio-cultural Super-Ego) by omitting exactly that causal interface which makes Freudo-Marxism a valid theoretical endeavour. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.230.124.227 (talk) 12:14, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

Valentin Voloshinov
I've added a reference to Valentin Voloshinov, whose work pre-dates Reich. As a note to other editors interested in this page, there should be a section after the one on Lacan (or at the end of that one) on Félix Guattari and Gilles Deleuze, especially Anti-Oedipus. Probably makes sense to talk about anti-psychiatry movement too.

More citations needed
I have added the "more citations needed" template for this article. Pretty much every section is lacking sufficient external citations.

In need of citations or delete
Certain philosophers[who?] have revised Marx's concept of commodity fetishism in the light of Freud's concept of sexual fetishism, theorizing a sexually charged relationships between a person and a manufactured object.[citation needed]

This is the most beautiful sentence I have ever read, but unless there is a citation for it, it probably needs to go. Someone please find a citation for it so it can stay.
