Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of Slavoj Å1⁄2iÅ3⁄4ek'¿¿s political philosophy. Focusing on the combination of psychoanalytic theory and philosophy, the book offers an overview of Å1⁄2iÅ3⁄4ek'¿¿s analysis of contemporary society. In five chapters, the reader is introduced to Å1⁄2iÅ3⁄4ek'¿¿s method, his view of the political impasse in the postmodern world, and his suggestion for a way ahead to renewed action and political invention. Rich in examples, the book gives an engaging and entertaining tour around the landscape of Å1⁄2iÅ3⁄4ek'¿¿s political endeavour, while at the same time insisting on a more systematic and piecemeal approach than the Slovenian tends to offer himself.
