“See you, either in Hell, or in Communism.”

Slavoj Žižek infamously said “Humanity is OK, but 99% of people are boring idiots” —  Žižek himself is certainly neither boring nor an idiot. Žižek is arguably the most provocative philosopher of our times. Foreign Policy named Žižek a Top 100 Global Thinker "for giving voice to an era of absurdity”. With never a dull moment, Žižek breathes new life into Marxism, Hegel, psychoanalysis, philosophy, politics, film and culture.

Žižek is the author of more than 50 books, including most recently Against Progress. He is a senior researcher at the University of Ljubljana's Department of Philosophy.

“There is something inexplicably touching about all Žižek's mischievous bombast” — The Guardian
