His witty, psychoanalytically-inspired analyses of contemporary society have almost single-handedly revived the notion of ideology. His brilliant commentaries on the French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan and the 19th century German Idealists have brought alive their often difficult ideas for a new generation of readers. But does Zizek have anything to say in his own right? Is there a system of thought that we can properly call \" Zizekian\"? This book argues that there is, through a reading of two terms in his work-the master-signifier and the act. Featuring an interview with Zizek himself, Slavoj Zizek: Live Theory presents a snapshot of the Zizek system ideal for undergraduates in social and cultural theory and philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Continuum","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45086374035607,"sku":"9780826469953","price":3439.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780826469953.webp?v=1767265959","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/slavoj-zizek-live-theory-9780826469953","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
