About the Book

Slavoj Žižek’s first book is a provocative and original work looking at the question of human agency in a postmodern world. From the sinking of the Titanic to Hitchcock’s rear window, from the operas of Wagner to science fiction, from Ridley Scott’s alien to the Jewish joke, Žižek’s acute analyses explore the ideological fantasies of wholeness and exclusion that make up human society. Linking key psychoanalytical and philosophical concepts to social phenomena such as totalitarianism and racism, the book explores the political significance of these fantasies of control.
