'eoeZizek is a thinker who regards nothing as outside his field: the result is deeply interesting and provocative.'e�, "Zizek leaves no social or cultural phenomenon untheorized, and is a master of the counterintuitive observation."- New Yorker "The giant of Ljubljana provides the best intellectual high science since Anti-Oedipus ."- The Village Voice "Zizek is a thinker who regards nothing as outside his field: the result is deeply interesting and provocative."- Guardian "Zizek is one of the few living writers to combine theoretical rigor with compulsive readability."- Publishers Weekly

Synopsis
A witty, adrenalin-fuelled manifesto for universal values by the maverick philosopher. Is global emancipation a lost cause? Are universal values outdated relics of an earlier age? In the postmodern world, ideologies of all kinds have been cast in doubt. In this combative new work, renowned theorist Slavoj Zizek takes on the reigning postmodern agenda with a manifesto for several "lost causes." From a provocative redemption of Heidegger's engagement with the Third Reich as "a right step in the wrong direction," to reasserting class struggle as the underlying reality of global capitalism, to a defense of the emancipatory legacy of Christianity against New Age spiritualism, Zizek confronts the failures of contemporary theory and proposes unexpected resolutions., Acclaimed, adrenalin-fueled manifesto for universal values by 'the most dangerous philosopher in the West.'
