Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - AUTHOR APPROVEDZizek's communism: revolutionary terror or Utopian jouissance Communist, conservative, anti-semantic: Slavoj Zizek's work attracts a lot of labels, most of them pejorative. Countering this, Chris McMillan identifies Zizek's unique and productive contribution to social and political theory, constructing his work as a response to the deadlock imposed by global capitalism. He takes issue with the critical positioning of Zizek's output as 'good theory, bad politics' and argues instead that Zizek's politics provide a reading of global capitalism that reinvents political subversion.Highlighting the political consequences of Zizek's fundamental concepts (the Lacanian Real, universality, and the communist hypothesis), McMillan suggests that Zizek's turn to Communism represents the ultimate significance of his work for the 21st century.Key Features:\*summarises key applications of psychoanalytic theory to politics and shared social life\*produces a sustained reading of Zizek's understanding of the economy and capitalism\*considers the specific value of Zizek's work as a form of political action\*responds to Zizek's recent reference to the communist hypothesis and 'egalitarian justice'Chris McMillan currently works at Brunel University. He has been a guest editor for the /International Journal of Zizek Studies/.
