Slavoj Žižek
From RationalWiki
(Redirected from Slavoj Zizek)
Slavoj Žižek is a Slovene philosopher who has written numerous books about Lacan, Marx, and Hegel, peppering reams of copy with heavy interpretations of the most esoteric of Freudian thinkers with jokes about the Cold War, Alfred Hitchcock, and the difference between toilets in various European countries. He went absolutely berserk when Occupy Wall Street happened, but he still has doubts about anarchism and thinks Hegel proves that a strong State is needed. While Žižek's philosophy often draws heavily on Christian theology, he is a staunch defender of atheism.[1]
